Forbid deducing reference types for m_predicate in FilterGenerator to prevent dangling references.
This is needed for out-of-line predicates to work correctly instead of undefined behavior or crashes.

This builds on the existing work to make assertion thread safe,
by adding an extra synchronization point in the holder of
`ReusableStringStream`'s stream instances, as those are used to
build the messages, and finishing the move of message scope holders
to be thread-local.

As with the JSON writer, the old code was made to be simple and
for each char just decided whether it needs escaping, or should be
written as-is. The new code instead looks for characters that need
escaping and batches writes of characters that do not.

This provides 4-8x speedup (length dependent) for writing strings
that do not need escaping, and keeps roughly the same performance
for those that do need escaping.

The old code was exceedingly simple, as it went char-by-char and
decided whether to write it to the output stream as-is, or escaped.
This caused a _lot_ of stream writes of individual characters.

The new code instead looks for characters that need escaping, and
bulk-writes the non-escaped characters in between them. This leads
to about the same performance for strings that comprise of only
escaped characters, and 3-10x improvement for strings without any
escaping needed.

In practice, we should expect the former rather than the latter,
but this is still nice improvement.

Primarily this means that with Clang we use `__builtin_debugtrap`
if available.

This stops tests failing falsely if the assertion passed, but the
stringification itself failed as the assertion was sent to the reporter.

I don't think that stringification should be fallible, but the
overhead in compilation ended up being small enough (&lt;0.5% on `SelfTest`)
that it might be worth implementing, in case there is more users
with weird `StringMaker`s than just MongoDB.

Closes #2980
