[DEBUGINFO, NVPTX] Try to pack bytes data into a single string.

Summary:
If the target does not support `.asciz` and `.ascii` directives, the
strings are represented as bytes and each byte is placed on the new line
as a separate byte directive `.b8 <data>`. NVPTX target allows to
represent the vector of the data of the same type as a vector, where
values are separated using `,` symbol: `.b8 <data1>,<data2>,...`. This
allows to reduce the size of the final PTX file. Ptxas tool includes ptx
files into the resulting binary object, so reducing the size of the PTX
file is important.
