Anonymous string is one exception that the back end does
need to generate storage on (read only) data section.

Currently in order to determine a symbol is anonymous string,
we can test:
	symbol is array
	and symbol has no ident.
	and symbol base type is char.
	and symbol initializer is a string expression.

This patch add a bitfield to easier identify an anonymous string.
