Add some suggestions to the evaluator

Browse source 
Make the evaluator show some suggestions when trying to access an
invalid field from an attrset.

```console
$ nix eval --expr '{ foo = 1; }.foa'
error: attribute 'foa' missing

       at «string»:1:1:

            1| { foo = 1; }.foa
             | ^
       Did you mean foo?
```
