keep references to actions indefinitely. Instead, once an action is finished executing, keep just some metadata about it. This allows actions to be unconditionally dropped when running with --batch, --discard_analysis_cache, and --keep_going, even if profiling is enabled.
The additional fields here add between 8 and 12 bytes per component, and we have one component per action. This additional penalty is only incurred when we are already saving memory, so I think it's ok. The full penalty will be realized only towards the end of the build, when every action has started executing at least once. Users can still specify --noexperimental_enable_critical_path_profiling if they want to squeeze even more memory out.
