This is the same idea as #5118, I was looking at a profile and noted that ~5% of our time was sent dropping HashMap<PackageId, HashSet<InternedString>>. A quick rg and I found the culprit, we are cloning the set of features for every new Context. With some Rc we are now just cloning for each time we insert.

To benchmark I commented out line

has_past_conflicting_dep = true;

the smallest change to get #4810 (comment) not to solve instantly.

.or_insert_with(HashSet::new);
.or_insert_with(|| Rc::new(HashSet::new()));

let mut inner: HashSet<_> = (**set).clone();

Could this perhaps use Rc::make_mut? That way we could have a fast path as well for when the Context hasn't been cloned?

This is an algorithmic improvement, I think HashSet.clone() is now O(# activated * ticks) and this pr bings it to O(# activated).

I can experiment with that, here and for #5118, but I suspect it will be rare. Not only does the context need not to be cloned, but it needs not to have been cloned since last time that this package was added. Would you like me to do that expremint in this PR or in a follow up?

I did it in this PR as it made the diff much smaller. New performance numbers on the way.

New numbers after using Rc::make_mut are, within the uncertainty of the measurement, the same. But the code is cleaner, and it may be faster for some other workloads.
