SymbolCompletionItem.CreateWorker can be called thousands of times for each completion list, and in the scenarios I've tested, it passes in the same contextPosition for each call. We need this context position as a string to store in a properties collection, so previously the code always ToString'ed the position. This PR creates a simple single item cache that is used to commonly avoid this allocation. Not a huge win, but it's 0.2% of total allocations in the trace I'm looking at.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
It's a bit hard to tell whether this ContextPosition is really needed much in the first place -- I can't entirely tell if this is the location of the symbol, or just being used for figuring out quick info later. But the change here is simple enough.
