Short answer: there is no such setting.

Long answer: how could this possibly work?  In order to exclude such a
string resource, the system would need to prove that the resource is
unreferenced by any code.  But due to the loose coupling between code and
resources, it's trivial to give an example that shows that no such proof is
practical.

I suspect that this problem is about as hard as adding a compiler setting
that would emit a warning if it detects that your program will go into an
infinite loop and never halt.
