[clang] Fix crashes when passing VLA to va_arg (#119563)

Closes #119360.

This bug occurs when passing a VLA to `va_arg`. Since the return value
is inferred to be an array, it triggers
`ScalarExprEmitter::VisitCastExpr`, which converts it to a pointer and
subsequently calls `CodeGenFunction::EmitAggExpr`. At this point,
because the inferred type is an `AggExpr` instead of a `ScalarExpr`,
`ScalarExprEmitter::VisitVAArgExpr` is not invoked, and as a result,
`CodeGenFunction::EmitVariablyModifiedType` is also not called, leading
to the size of the VLA not being retrieved.
The solution is to move the call to
`CodeGenFunction::EmitVariablyModifiedType` into
`CodeGenFunction::EmitVAArg`, ensuring that the size of the VLA is
correctly obtained regardless of whether the expression is an `AggExpr`
or a `ScalarExpr`.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
