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 at /nix/store/b7imf1c2j4jnkg3ys7fsfbj02s5j0i4f-source/testflake/flake.nix:4:5: 3| outputs = { self }: { 4| jsonFunction = _: "function"; | ^ 5| json = builtins.toJSON (_: "function"); ```
