   ### Rationale for this change
   Reduces LLVM TargetMachine object creation from 3 to 1. This object is 
expensive to create and the extra copies weren't needed.
   
   ### What changes are included in this PR?
   Refactor the Engine class to only create one target machine and pass that to 
the necessary functions.
   
   
   Before the change (3 TargetMachines created):
   
   First TargetMachine: In Engine::Make(), MakeTargetMachineBuilder() is 
called, then BuildJIT() is called. Inside LLJITBuilder::create(), when 
prepareForConstruction() runs, if no DataLayout was set, it calls 
JTMB->getDefaultDataLayoutForTarget() which creates a temporary TargetMachine 
just to get the DataLayout.
   
   Second TargetMachine: Inside BuildJIT(), when setCompileFunctionCreator is 
used with the lambda, that lambda calls JTMB.createTargetMachine() to create a 
TargetMachine for the TMOwningSimpleCompiler.
   
   Third TargetMachine: Back in Engine::Make(), after BuildJIT() returns, 
there's an explicit call to jtmb.createTargetMachine() to create 
target_machine_ for the Engine.
   
   After the change (1 TargetMachine created):
   
   The key changes are:
   
   Create TargetMachine first: The code now creates the TargetMachine 
explicitly at the start of the Engine in Engine::Make. That machine is passed 
to BuildJIT. In BuildJiIT that machine's DataLayout is sent to LLJITBuilder 
which prevents prepareForConstruction() from calling 
getDefaultDataLayoutForTarget() (which would create a temporary TargetMachine).
   
   Use SimpleCompiler instead of TMOwningSimpleCompiler:
   SimpleCompiler takes a reference to an existing TargetMachine rather than 
owning one, so no new TargetMachine is created.
   A shared_ptr is used to ensure that TargetMachine stays around for the 
lifetime of the LLJIT instance.
   
   ### Are these changes tested?
   Yes, unit and integration.
   
   ### Are there any user-facing changes?
   No.
