Factor OnePassCompiler::forwards into local var.

Iteration of a `Forwards` object is destructive,
which previously meant that we had to clone it in order
to iterate over it. Once the compiler iterates over the
forwarding jobs, it never touches them again, so this
was an extra copy. This patch plays a little type tetris
to get rid of that extra copy.
