Summary:
That unless the user requested an output object (--lto-obj-path), the an
unused empty combined module is not emitted.
This changed is helpful for some target (ex. RISCV-V) which encoded the
ABI info in IR module flags (target-abi). Empty unused module has no ABI
info so the linker would get the linking error during merging
incompatible ABIs.

Use the unique filenames that are used when /lldsavetemps is passed.
After this change, module names for LTO blobs in PDBs will be unique.
Visual Studio and probably other debuggers expect module names to be
unique.
Revert some changes from 1e0b158db (2017) that are no longer necessary
after removing MSVC LTO support.
