Unnecessary String allocation on every name/varname lookup.

get_index_of::<String>(&name.as_str().into()) allocates a fresh String for every call to name()/varname() (i.e. for essentially every identifier compiled), even though IndexSet<String> already supports lookup by &str via Borrow<str>. This defeats part of the point of migrating to Name for reduced overhead.

_name_inner builds a throwaway Name from &str before mangling.

_name_inner backs self.name() and self.varname(), which are called for essentially every identifier reference emitted by the compiler (attribute names, global names, local variable names). At line 2615, let target = name.into(); allocates a Name from the &str parameter purely so self.mangle(&target) can accept it, and mangle() itself allocates again internally from private (see the linked comment on lines 3106-3114). This doubles the allocation cost on a very hot path.

This shares the same root cause as the mangle() allocation: once CodeInfo.private is cached as Name, consider adding a mangle-style helper that accepts &str directly (borrowing into a Cow only when mangling actually changes the name) to avoid constructing a Name for the common non-mangled case.

and the mangling path it uses to accept the existing &str directly, avoiding the
intermediate Name allocation for the common non-mangled case. Reuse the cached
CodeInfo.private Name and borrow the original string unless mangling changes it,
while preserving the current cache lookup and insertion behavior.

Keep symbol lookup borrowed by str.

Name implements Borrow<str>, so IndexMap<Name, Symbol> accepts &str queries. Change lookup to accept &str and pass name.as_str() from Name callers. This avoids constructing temporary Name values on compiler lookup paths.
