Storing every string without ninja variable references through
simpleNinjaString costs 24 bytes and a heap allocation. 16 bytes
is used for the ninjaString.str string, 8 bytes for the
ninjaString.variables *[]variableReference. An additional 8 bytes
is used for the resulting pointer into the heap.
The vast majority of calls to simpleNinjaString originate in
blueprint.parseBuildParams, which converts all of the parameters
passed to ctx.Build into ninjaStrings. All together this was
allocating 1.575 GB of *ninjaString objects.
Add a parseNinjaOrSimpleStrings function that converts input strings
into ninjaStrings if they have ninja variable references, but also
returns a slice of plain strings for input strings without any ninja
variable references. That still results in 1.39 GB of allocations just
for the output string slice, so also add an optimization that reuses
the input string slice as the output slice if all of the strings had
no variable references.
Plumb the resulting strings through everywhere that the []*ninjaStrings
were used.
This reduces the total memory allocations inside
blueprint.parseBuildParams in my AOSP aosp_cf_x86_64_phone-userdebug
build from 3.337 GB to 1.786 GB.

ninjaString is an interface, which uses 16 bytes of memory on top
of the size of the concrete type. A literalNinjaString is a string,
which is another 16 bytes for the string header for a total of 32
bytes. A varNinjaString is two slices, which are 24 bytes each
for the slice headers, for a total of 64 bytes. The slices contain
the first constant string, and then altenrating variable and string
parts of the ninjaString, resulting in 16 bytes plus 32 bytes per
variable.
This patch replaces the ninjaString interface with a *ninjaString
concrete struct type. The ninjaString struct is a string and a
pointer to a slice of variable references, for a total of 24 bytes.
ninjaStrings with no variable references (the equivalent of the old
literalNinjaString) have a nil slice, and now use 24 bytes instead
of 32 bytes.
ninjaStrings with variable references allocate a slice of variable
references that contain 32-bit start and end offsets and a Variable
interface, but reuse the original string and so avoid the extra
string headers, resulting in 24 bytes for the slice header, and
24 bytes per variable.
These savings reduce the peak memory usage averaged across 10 runs of
/bin/time -v build/soong/soong_ui.bash --make-mode nothing
on the internal master branch cf_x86_64_phone-userdebug build
from 50114842kB to 45577638kB, a savings of 4537204kB or 9%.
The new Benchmark_parseNinjaString shows savings in both time and
memory. Before:

buildDef.WriteTo was calling valueList to convert all the build
parameter ninjaStrings into strings, which uses ValueWithEscaper
to build a strings.Builder. This results in building a string
only to immediately copy it into the output writer's buffer.
Instead, pass an io.StringWriter to ValueWithEscaper so it can
build the string directly into the output writer's buffer. This
requires converting ninjaWriterWithWrap into an io.StringWriter.

There are 8935901 *ninjaString objects generated in an AOSP
aosp_blueline-userdebug build, and 7865180 of those are a literal
string with no ninja variables.
Each of those *ninjaString objects takes a minimum of 48 bytes for
2 slices, plus 8 bytes for the pointer to the ninjaString. For
the literal string case, one of those slices has a single element,
(costing another 16 bytes for the backing array), and the other
slice is empty, for a total of 72 bytes.
Replace *ninjaString with a ninjaString interface. This increases
the size of the reference from 8 bytes to 16 bytes, but using
a type alias of a string for the literal string implementation uses
only 16 bytes, saving 40 bytes per literal string or 314 MB.

Spaces normally don't need to be escaped, but leading spaces are
trimmed. Escape leading space to allow setting a variable to a
value with leading spaces.

Turn PackageContext into an interface so that build systems can wrap it
to add more custom helpers.
This does introduce an API change, though it should be fairly simple.
NewPackageContext used to provide an opaque *PackageContext struct, now it
provides a PackageContext interface.

Naively pre-allocate ninjaString slices by counting $ characters as
an estimate of how many variables will be needed. Saves 5% cpu time
on one workload.

If a $ sign occurs after a variable name, the ninja string parser
fails to check if it is a $$ or a ${. Go to the
parseDollarStartState instead of the parseDollarState.
Since it is not yet known if the $ is the beginning of a new
variable (${ or $<alphanumeric>) or a string ($$), an empty string
separator cannot be added to the ninjaString strings list. Instead,
add functions to push strings or variables onto the ninjaString,
and automatically add the blank separator if two variables are
pushed in a row.

Forcing module names to be valid ninja names is an unnecessary
restraint on the project build logic. Allow any string as a
module name, and sanitize and uniquify the module name for use
in module-scoped variables.
Also move the module scope to be per-module instead of per-group
so that modules can use the same local variable name for each variant.
