Arc-wrap PubGrubPackage for cheap cloning in pubgrub

[konstin]

Pubgrub stores incompatibilities as (package name, version range) tuples, meaning it needs to clone the package name for each incompatibility, and each non-borrowed operation on incompatibilities. #3673 made me realize that PubGrubPackage has gotten large (expensive to copy), so like Version and other structs, i've added an Arc wrapper around it.

It's a pity clippy forbids .deref(), it's less opaque than &** and has IDE support (clicking on .deref() jumps to the right impl).

Benchmarks

It looks like this matters most for complex resolutions which, i assume because they carry larger PubGrubPackageInner::Package and PubGrubPackageInner::Extra types.

I think you read my mind. I was thinking about doing exactly this too. I don't think I realized how much we were cloning PubGrubPackage though. Nice find. This will probably help even more once marker is a non-None value. (Right now, it's always None, so cloning will still be cheap.)

While I don't mind the &*foo and &**foo myself, if you wanted to go the foo.deref() route, I'd recommend just defining an additional concrete method, e.g., foo.as_inner() or something.
