Previously, the VM assumed that if an error was returned from `run()`,
the evaluation was "finished" and the state of the VM didn't matter.
This used to be a reasonable assumption, but now that we've got
`tryEval` around we need to actually make sure that we clean up after
ourselves if we're about to return an error. Specifically, if the *last*
instruction in an evaluation frame returns an error, we previously
wouldn't pop that evaluation frame, which could cause all sorts of
bizarre errors based on what happened to be in the stack at the time.
This commit splits out a `run_op` method from `VM::run`, and uses that
to check the evaluation frame return condition even if the op we're
running is about to return an error, and pop the evaluation frame if
we're at the last instruction.

Despite this not being documented, `tryEval` is empirically able to
catch errors caused by a <...> path not resolving (and nixpkgs depends
on this).

With asserts compiled using conditional jumps, this ends up being quite
straightforward - the only real tricky bit is that we have to know
whether an error can or can't be handled.
