Rafael Espindola cfb320f5f9 Fix a performance bug in the Linker.
Now that we hava a convinient place to keep it, remeber the set of
identified structs as we merge modules.

This speeds up the linking of all the bitcode files in clang with the
gold plugin and -plugin-opt=emit-llvm (i.e., link only, no codegen) from
5:25 minutes to 13.6 seconds!

Patch by Xiaofei Wan!
