That all makes sense.

We're wasting 8 bytes of NULL pointer for each entry, but it's unlikely
to be all that important. If we later find a case where we think it
matters, we can always refactor the type not to depend on strmap.

I'd want a strset_check_and_add() to match what I used recently in
shortlog.h. Maybe strset_contains_and_add() would be a better name to
match the individual functions here. I dunno (it actually seems
clunkier).
