MC: Shave a pointer off of MCSymbol::Name

Shave a pointer off of `MCSymbolName` by storing `StringMapEntry<bool>*`
instead of `StringRef`.  This brings `sizeof(MCSymbol)` down to 64 on
64-bit platforms, a nice round number.  My profile showed memory
dropping from 914 MB down to 908 MB, roughly 0.7%.  Other than memory
usage, no functionality change here.

(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;
see r236629 for details.)
