//! Phase 11: String Interning
//!
//! **What It Does:**
//! Deduplicates string literals by creating a global string pool and replacing
//! duplicate literals with references to the pool. This reduces memory usage
//! and improves cache locality.
//!
//! **Example:**
//! ```windjammer
//! // Before:
//! fn greet_alice() { println!("Hello") }
//! fn greet_bob() { println!("Hello") }
//! fn greet_charlie() { println!("Hello") }
//!
//! // After:
//! static __STRING_POOL_0: &str = "Hello";
//! fn greet_alice() { println!(__STRING_POOL_0) }
//! fn greet_bob() { println!(__STRING_POOL_0) }
//! fn greet_charlie() { println!(__STRING_POOL_0) }
//! ```
//!
//! **Benefits:**
//! - Reduces binary size (fewer duplicate strings)
//! - Improves memory usage (shared string data)
//! - Better cache locality (fewer string copies)
//! - Typical savings: 5-20% of string data
//!
//! **When Applied:**
//! - String literal appears 2+ times
//! - String length >= 10 characters (threshold)
//! - Not applied to format strings or interpolated strings
