lib/generators: withRecursion: don't break attr-sets with special attrs

Closes #168327

The issue reported there can be demonstrated with the following
expression:

    → nix-instantiate --eval -E "with import ./. {}; pkgs.lib.options.showDefs [ { file = \"foo\"; value = pkgs.rust.packages.stable.buildRustPackages; } ]"
    error: attempt to call something which is not a function but a string

           at /home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs/lib/trivial.nix:442:35:

              441|   isFunction = f: builtins.isFunction f ||
              442|     (f ? __functor && isFunction (f.__functor f));
                 |                                   ^
              443|

Basically, if a `__functor` is in an attribute-set at depth-limit,
`__functor` will be set to `"<unevaluated>"`. This however breaks
`lib.isFunction` which checks for a `__functor` by invoking `__functor`
with `f` itself.

The same issue - "magic" attributes being shadowed by `withRecursion` -
also applies to others such as
`__pretty`/`__functionArgs`/`__toString`.

Since these attributes have a low-risk of causing a stack overflow
(because these are flat attr-sets or even functions), ignoring them in
`withRecursion` seems like a valid solution.
