Temporary fix for leak with -fno-code (#20509)
This hack inserted for backpack caused a very bad leak when using
-fno-code where EPS entries would end up retaining stale
HomePackageTables. For any interactive user, such as HLS, this is really
bad as once the entry makes it's way into the EPS then it's there for
the rest of the session.
This is a temporary fix which "solves" the issue by filtering the HPT to
only the part which is needed for the hack to work, but in future we
want to separate out hole modules from the HPT entirely to avoid needing
to do this kind of special casing.
