[string] Fix casting around external internalized string thinning
When an external string matches and internalized external string, we want to deduplicate them. As part of that de-duplication, we check if either a) the internalized string's resource is null (it's freshly created because the original string was in new space) or b) they point to the same data (in which case we don't want to dispose of the data). However, when doing these checks we cast both the initial and the internalized external string to the same type (one or two byte). So, if a two-byte string finds a one-byte internalized string with equivalent data, this cast will fail. Since we only care about the external string resource being null or equal to another during the above deduplication, the solution is casting first to the more general ExternalString type, comparing resources by address, and only casting to the more specific type when needed (and we know that the types have to match by other construction).
