This was based off @thakis' draft in D103517: NOT FOR REVIEW: [lld/mac] why_live sketch <https://reviews.llvm.org/D103517>. I employed templates to ensure
the support for `-why_live` wouldn't slow down the regular non-why-live code
path.

No stat sig perf difference on my 3.2 GHz 16-Core Intel Xeon W:
