        <pre>Regular `comdat any` performs deduplication with the symbol name as the key.

`comdat noduplicates` is useful to express that a group of sections should be
retained or discarded as a unit. This is currently unimplemented for wasm.

This feature is useful for certain metadata sections. In the simplest
non-value-profiling PGO/coverage case. A function needs two metadata sections:
__llvm_prf_cnts, __llvm_prf_data. The code references __llvm_prf_cnts but
__llvm_prf_data is unreferenced. We can place the pair of cnts/data in a
`comdat noduplicates` to let the liveness of cnts retain data.</pre>
