[lld-macho] Implement symbol string deduplication (#123874)

The symbol string table does not have deduplication. 
Here we add code to deduplicate the symbol string table. 
This has a rather large size impact (20-30%) on unstripped binaries
(typically debug binaries) but no size impact on stripped
binaries(typically release binaries).

We enable deduplication by default and add a flag to disable it
(`-no-deduplicate-symbol-strings`).
