feat: have #eval elaborate variables (#11427)
This PR modifies `#eval e` to elaborate `e` with section variables in
scope. While evaluating expressions with free variables is not possible,
this lets `#eval` give a better error message than "unknown identifier."

Example:
```lean
section
variable (n : Nat)
/-- error: Cannot evaluate, contains free variable `n` -/
#guard_msgs in #eval n
end
```

The error is localized to `#eval`. It would be more friendly if the
error were to be placed on uses of free variables.
