flake: update nixpkgs pin 23.11->24.05 (+ boehmgc compat changes)
The boehmgc changes are bundled into this commit because doing otherwise
would require an annoying dance of "adding compatibility for < 8.2.6 and
>= 8.2.6" then updating the pin then removing the (now unneeded)
compatibility. It doesn't seem worth the trouble to me given the low
complexity of said changes.

Rebased coroutine-sp-fallback.diff patch taken from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/317227
