Even though what this code does is the same as what we do for the ELF linker, the code looks different. In ELF, we pass ComdatGroups (which is a set of comdat signature strings we've seen so far) around. I don't remember if there was a reason to do it differently for Wasm. Do you remmeber?

I found this version more explicit. ELF currently passes a new DummyGroups to each LTO object's parse function as way of implicitly disabling comdats, but I think explicitly disabling them improves clarity. Perhaps I should change the ELF linker to do the same thing either in this change or as a followup? Alternaitvely I would update this PR to match the ELF method and propose a separate PR to convert them both over as a followup?

LGTM

Yeah, maybe we should change ELF to match this, but it will likely to conflict with my ongoing refactoring, I'll take a look later about that.
