Only using that change in StringRef already decreases the number of
preoprocessed lines from 7837621 to 7776151 for LLVMSupport
Perhaps more interestingly, it shows that many files were relying on the
inclusion of StringRef.h to have the declaration from STLExtras.h. This
patch tries hard to patch relevant part of llvm-project impacted by this
hidden dependency removal.
Potential impact:
- "llvm/ADT/StringRef.h" no longer includes <memory>,
"llvm/ADT/Optional.h" nor "llvm/ADT/STLExtras.h"

Summary:
StringPool has many caveats and isn't used in the monorepo. I will
propose removing it as a patch separate from this refactoring patch.

Also add a test case to wasm-ld that asserts without this change.
Internally wasm-ld builds a StringMap of exported functions and it seems
like allowing empty string in the set is preferable to adding checks.
This assert looks like it was most likely just a historical accident.
It started life here purely to support InputLanguagesSet:
eeac27e38c
Then got extracted here:
e57a403338
Then got moved to AST here
5c48bae209
With the `InLang` paramater name still intact which suggested is
InputLanguagesSet origins.
