Daniel Pauls fa83b865a2 libexpr: Throw the correct error in toJSON
BaseError::addTrace(...) returns a BaseError, but we want to
throw a TypeError instead.

Fixes #6336.

toJSON: report error position for fancier output
Given flake:

```nix
{ description = "nix json error provenance";
  inputs = {};
  outputs = { self }: {
    jsonFunction = _: "function";
    json = builtins.toJSON (_: "function");
  };
}

```
- Before:

```console
❯ nix eval --json .#jsonFunction
error: cannot convert a function to JSON
```

- After:

```console
❯ nix eval --json .#jsonFunction
error: cannot convert a function to JSON

Eelco Dolstra b83801f8b3 Optimize small lists
The value pointers of lists with 1 or 2 elements are now stored in the
list value itself. In particular, this makes the "concatMap (x: if
cond then [(f x)] else [])" idiom cheaper.

Shea Levy 320659b0cd Allow external code using libnixexpr to add types
Code that links to libnixexpr (e.g. plugins loaded with importNative, or
nix-exec) may want to provide custom value types and operations on
values of those types. For example, nix-exec is currently using sets
where a custom IO value type would be more appropriate. This commit
provides a generic hook for such types in the form of tExternal and the
ExternalBase virtual class, which contains all functions necessary for
libnixexpr's type-polymorphic functions (e.g. `showType`) to be
implemented.
