Print the value in error: cannot coerce messages (#9553)
* Print the value in `error: cannot coerce` messages

This extends the `error: cannot coerce a TYPE to a string` message
to print the value that could not be coerced. This helps with debugging
by making it easier to track down where the value is being produced
from, especially in errors with deep or unhelpful stack traces.

Pass positions when evaluating
This includes position information in more places, making debugging
easier.

Before:

```
$ nix-instantiate --show-trace --eval tests/functional/lang/eval-fail-using-set-as-attr-name.nix
error:
       … while evaluating an attribute name

         at «none»:0: (source not available)

       error: value is a set while a string was expected
```

After:

```
error:
       … while evaluating an attribute name

         at /pwd/lang/eval-fail-using-set-as-attr-name.nix:5:10:

            4| in
            5|   attr.${key}
             |          ^
            6|

       error: value is a set while a string was expected
```
