libutil: fix args assert being thrown on Darwin in nix-eval-jobs

This is because a dynamic_cast<nix::RootArgs *> of a (n-e-j) MyArgs
returns nullptr even though MyArgs has virtual nix::RootArgs as a
parent.

class MyArgs : virtual public nix::MixEvalArgs,
               virtual public nix::MixCommonArgs,
               virtual nix::RootArgs { ... };

So this should work right?? But it does not. We found out that it's
caused by -fvisibility=hidden in n-e-j, but honestly this code was bad
anyway.

The trivial solution is to simply stop relying on RTTI working properly
here, which is probably better OO architecture anyway. However, I am not
100% confident *this* is sound, since we have this horrible hierarchy:

      Args (defines getRoot)
     /        |           \
RootArgs  MixCommonArgs  MixEvalArgs
(overrides)

I am not confident that this is guaranteed to resolve from Args always
in the case of this override.

}

We also found that if we did this:
class [[gnu::visibility("default")]] RootArgs : virtual public Args

it would work properly (???!). This is of course, very strange, because
objdump -Ct output on liblixexpr.dylib is identical both with and
without it.
