Note that this assembly comes from the mssqlsystemresource database, that 
is the system database that inlcudes all system procedures, catalog views
etc.

I don't know about the mpusqlclrwrapper, and the documentation I find on
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sqlserver.management.shared.mpusql.mpusqlclrwrapper.aspx
isn't that detailed. However MPU = Multi-Processor Unit or some such.
This is related to what now is known as the Parallel Data Warehouse and
which first appeared in the SQL 2008 R2 timeframe. Since that is a 
specialised version of SQL Server, it is not appearent why it would be
loaded on a plain-vanilla instance.
