This commit deduplicates the Thunk-like functionality from Closure
and unifies it with Thunk.
Specifically, we now have one and only one way of breaking reference
cycles in the Value-graph: Thunk. No other variant contains a
RefCell. This should make it easier to reason about the behavior of
the VM. InnerClosure and UpvaluesCarrier are no longer necessary.
This refactoring allowed an improvement in code generation:
`Rc<RefCell<>>`s are now created only for closures which do not have
self-references or deferred upvalues, instead of for all closures.
OpClosure has been split into two separate opcodes:
- OpClosure creates non-recursive closures with no deferred
upvalues. The VM will not create an `Rc<RefCell<>>` when executing
this instruction.
- OpThunkClosure is used for closures with self-references or
deferred upvalues. The VM will create a Thunk when executing this
opcode, but the Thunk will start out already in the
`ThunkRepr::Evaluated` state, rather than in the
`ThunkRepr::Suspeneded` state.
To avoid confusion, OpThunk has been renamed OpThunkSuspended.
Thanks to @sterni for suggesting that all this could be done without
adding an additional variant to ThunkRepr. This does however mean
that there will be mutating accesses to `ThunkRepr::Evaluated`,
which was not previously the case. The field `is_finalised:bool`
has been added to `Closure` to ensure that these mutating accesses
are performed only on finalised Closures. Both the check and the
field are present only if `#[cfg(debug_assertions)]`.

This commit adds a comment for the benefit of non-Lua-users
explaining what an upvalue is. It also adds a comment explaining
what `with_stack` does, including a brief reminder of nix's
slightly-unusual-but-well-justified handling of this construct.

Using rust's PartialEq trait to implement Nix equality semantics is
reasonably fraught with peril, both because the actual laws are
different than what nix expects, and (more importantly) because certain
things actually require extra context to compare for equality (for
example, thunks need to be forced). This converts the manual PartialEq
impl for Value (and all its descendants) to a *derived* PartialEq
impl (which requires a lot of extra PartialEq derives on miscellanious
other types within the codebase), and converts the previous
nix-semantics equality comparison into a new `nix_eq` method. This
returns an EvalResult, even though it can't currently return an error,
to allow it to fail when eg forcing thunks (which it will do soon).
Since the PartialEq impls for Value and NixAttrs are now quite boring,
this converts the generated proptests for those into handwritten ones
that cover `nix_eq` instead

This completely rewrites the handling of "dynamic upvalues" to,
instead of resolving them at thunk/closure instantiation time (which
forces some values too early), capture the entire with stack of parent
contexts if it exists.
There are a couple of things in here that could be written more
efficiently, but I'm first working through this to get to a bug
related to with + recursion and the code complexity of some of the
optimisations is distracting.

This struct will be responsible for tracking upvalues (and is a
convenient place to introduce optimisations for reducing value clones)
instead of a plain value vector.
The main motivation for this is that the upvalues will have to capture
the `with`-stack fully and I want to avoid duplicating the logic for
this between the two capturing types.

This trait abstracts over the commonalities of upvalue handling
between closures and thunks.
It allows the VM to simplify the code used for setting up upvalues,
without duplicating between the two different types.
Note that this does not yet refactor the VM code to optimally make use
of this.
