  fix: Save FastStrings in the PMC
  
  There is no point in adding the unique to the occurrence FastString we
  create, since it is part of the Id anyway.
  
  Adding it to the FastString, meant each FastString was unique
  unnecessarily!
  
  In a separate branch, running the compiler on test `InstanceMatching`
  observed 30000 `FastString`s created by this code path.
  
  Plus, `fsLit "pm"` follows the existing pattern in `mkPmId`.
