Upstream-Issue: NixOS/nix#9988

Describe the bug

interpolating something that isn't a string into a string causes nix to report the failed bit as a path segment

Steps To Reproduce

eval "a${1}":

error:
       … while evaluating a path segment

         at «string»:1:3:

            1| "a${1}"
             |   ^

       error: cannot coerce an integer to a string

nix-env --version output

nix-env (Nix) 2.18.1, but still present in master.
