Revert "lib/generators: fix toPretty throwing on (partially applied) builtins"

This reverts commit d9a7d03da8.

Reason for this is that it actually doesn't migitate the issue on nix
stable for another reason: builtins.tryEval doesn't prevent the error
generated by builtins.functionArgs from halting evaluation:

> builtins.tryEval (builtins.functionArgs builtins.functionArgs)
error: 'functionArgs' requires a function, at (string):1:19

Thus it seems that there is no workaround to make
lib.generators.toPretty work with nix stable and primops since there is
no way to distinguish between primops and lambdas in nix.
