Subject: refactor(tvix/eval): builtins now contain closures

For some upcoming builtins (notably, import) we need to capture
arguments in the builtin's implementation.

To allow this, we can no longer use function pointers for builtins,
but must use a reference-counted closure object instead.

Unfortunately this adds an extra pointer operation to every builtin
call. We should benchmark this later against having a split builtin
representation.
