Lazify SourceFile::lines.

`SourceFile::lines` is a big part of metadata. It's stored in a compressed form
(a difference list) to save disk space. Decoding it is a big fraction of
compile time for very small crates/programs.

This commit introduces a new type `SourceFileLines` which has a `Lines`
form and a `Diffs` form. The latter is used when the metadata is first
read, and it is only decoded into the `Lines` form when line data is
actually needed. This avoids the decoding cost for many files,
especially in `std`. It's a performance win of up to 15% for tiny
crates/programs where metadata decoding is a high part of compilation
costs.

A `Lock` is needed because the methods that access lines data (which can
trigger decoding) take `&self` rather than `&mut self`. To allow for this,
`SourceFile::lines` now takes a `FnMut` that operates on the lines slice rather
than returning the lines slice.
