[ASTWriter] Detect more non-affecting FileIDs to reduce source location duplication (#112015)

Currently, any FileID that references a module map file that was
required for a compilation is considered as affecting. This misses an
important opportunity to reduce the source location space taken by the
resulting PCM.

In particular, consider the situation where the same module map file is
passed multiple times in the dependency chain:

```shell
$ clang -fmodule-map-file=foo.modulemap ... -o mod1.pcm
$ clang -fmodule-map-file=foo.modulemap -fmodule-file=mod1.pcm ... -o mod2.pcm
...
$ clang -fmodule-map-file=foo.modulemap -fmodule-file=mod$((N-1)).pcm ... -o mod$N.pcm
```

Because `foo.modulemap` is read before reading any of the `.pcm` files,
we have to create a unique `FileID` for it when creating each module.
However, when reading the `.pcm` files, we will reuse the `FileID`
loaded from it for the same module map file and the `FileID` we created
can never be used again, but we will still mark it as affecting and it
will take the source location space in the output PCM.

For a chain of N dependencies, this results in the file taking `N *
(size of file)` source location space, which could be significant. For
examples, we observer internally that some targets that run out of 2GB
of source location space end up wasting up to 20% of that space in
module maps as described above.

I take extra care to still write the InputFile entries for those files that occupied
source location space before. It is required for correctness of clang-scan-deps.

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.
