Reuse parsed AST in stripped_lines to avoid redundant astroid.parse()

process_module already receives the parsed nodes.Module from pylint's
main pass, but stripped_lines was re-parsing every file from source text.
Thread the existing AST through process_module → append_stream → LineSet
→ stripped_lines, falling back to astroid.parse() only when no tree is
provided (standalone symilar CLI).

The redundant parse dominated stripped_lines cost.  Per-file savings:

  file size     time saved    memory saved
  0 lines          0.14 ms       0.03 MB
  924 lines       65    ms       2.1  MB
  31k lines     2764    ms     101.6  MB

End-to-end on pylint's own codebase (179 files, ~49k SLOC):

  before  median=6.6s  peak RSS=170 MB
  after   median=5.1s  peak RSS=149 MB  (1.5x faster, -12% memory)
