packagefs: Share string instances globally

Introduce a class String which refers to shared private data that is
registered in a global hash table (in class StringPool) and use the
class consequently. This eliminates duplicate allocations for the same
string and also speeds up tests for equality. There's quite a bit
overhead for the management structures (apparently even more than for
the string data itself), but due to almost all strings being used
multiple times this still almost halves the memory usage for string
data.
