The other benefit is that DIBuilder keeps track of what metadata

generating identical ones --- similar functionality from

I don't think this is quite correct. LLVM merges identical metadata
nodes without any outside intervention. The metadata cache in
debuginfo.rs <http://debuginfo.rs> is strictly a performance optimization.

Thanks Wojtek and Vadim!
Josh has already mentioned that wrapping DIBuilder might be a good idea
in the future, and I'm starting to think that we should do so better
sooner than later.
