QStringList: use local storage in removeDuplicates()

If available, use a C++17 std::pmr::unordered_set with a monotonic
buffer resource and a 256-byte stack buffer to avoid the per-element
allocations of QSet.

Results on my machine:

When interpreting the data, take into account that each iteration
contains _also_ a deep copy of the QStringList d/t the detach from
'input'.

The pattern is used elsewhere in Qt, so I've put the class that
implements the seen set into a private header file and used in some
other places I found.
