  Silence deadcode.DeadStores analyzer findings in lldbWebKitTester
<https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319767>
<rdar://182627956>

Reviewed by Zak Ridouh.

The `StringImpl*` locals in `testSummaryProviders()` exist only so a
developer can inspect how the `lldb_webkit.py` summary providers render
them at the `breakForTestingSummaryProviders()` breakpoint; the compiled
program never reads them.  Three of them are not otherwise consumed, so
the `deadcode.DeadStores` static analyzer flags each initialization as a
dead store.

Mark those three declarations `[[maybe_unused]]` to record that they are
intentionally never read.  `deadcode.DeadStores` is an AST-based checker
that skips any variable carrying the unused attribute, so this silences
the finding at its source while keeping the values available for
inspection.  `an8BitStringImpl` is left unannotated because the
`CompactPointerTuple` examples below read it.
