core: Annotate for_each errors with expression info

Our diagnostics model allows for optionally annotating an error or warning
with information about the expression and eval context it was generated
from, which the diagnostic renderer for the UI will then use to give the
user some additional hints about what values may have contributed to the
error.

We previously didn't have those annotations on the results of evaluating
for_each expressions though, because in that case we were using the helper
function to evaluate an expression in one shot and thus we didn't ever
have a reference to the EvalContext in order to include it in the
diagnostic values.

Now, at the expense of having to handle the evaluation at a slightly lower
level of abstraction, we'll annotate all of the for_each error messages
with source expression information. This is valuable because we see users
often confused as to how their complex for_each expressions ended up being
invalid, and hopefully giving some information about what the inputs were
will allow more users to self-solve.
