[libcxx] Remove Redundant Reset in ~basic_string (#164718)HEADmain

8dae17be2991cd7f0d7fd9aa5aecd064520a14f6 refactors basic_string for more
code reuse. This makes sense in most cases, but has performance overhead
in the case of ~basic_string. The refactoring of ~basic_string to call
__reset_internal_buffer() added a redundant (inside the destructor)
reset of the object, which the optimizer is unable to optimize away in
many cases. This patch prevents a ~1% regression we observed on an
internal workload when applying the original refactoring. This does
slightly pessimize the code readability, but I think this change is
worth it given the performance impact.

I'm hoping to add a benchmark(s) to the upstream libc++ benchmark suite
around string construction/destruction to ensure that this case does not
regress as it seems common in real world applications. I will put up a
separate PR for that when I figure out a reasonable way to write it.
