[LifetimeSafety] Avoid adding already present items in sets/maps (#159582)

Optimize lifetime safety analysis performance

- Added early return optimization in `join` function for ImmutableSet
when sets are identical
- Improved ImmutableMap join logic to avoid unnecessary operations when
values are equal

I was under the impression that ImmutableSets/Maps would not modify the
underlying if already existing elements are added to the container (and
was hoping for structural equality in this aspect). It looks like the
current implementation of `ImmutableSet` would perform addition
nevertheless thereby creating (presumably `O(log(N))` tree nodes.

This change considerably brings down compile times for some edge cases
which happened to be present in the LLVM codebase. Now it is actually
possible to compile LLVM in under 20 min with the lifetime analysis.
The compile time hit is still significant but not as bad as before this
change where it was not possible to compile LLVM without severely
limiting analysis' scope (giving up on CFG with > 3000 blocks).

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.
