[ObjC] Emit a boxed expression as a compile-time constant if the
expression inside the parentheses is a valid UTF-8 string literal.

Previously clang emitted an expression like @("abc") as a message send
to stringWithUTF8String. This commit makes clang emit the boxed
expression as a compile-time constant instead.

This commit also has the effect of silencing the nullable-to-nonnull
conversion warning clang started emitting after r317727, which
originally motivated this commit (see https://oleb.net/2018/@keypath).
