LOG: [lldb] Fix use after free on ModuleList::RemoveSharedModuleIfOrphaned (#155331)

This fixes a potential use after free where
ModuleList::RemoveSharedModuleIfOrphaned ->
SharedModuleList::RemoveIfOrphaned -> SharedModuleList::RemoveFromMap
would potentially dereference a freed pointer. This fixes it by not
calling ModuleList::RemoveSharedModuleIfOrphaned at all if the pointer
was just freed.

Added: 
    

Modified: 
    lldb/include/lldb/Core/ModuleList.h
    lldb/source/Core/ModuleList.cpp
    lldb/source/Target/Target.cpp

Removed:
