  [lldb] Fix lookup for global constants in namespaces

LLDB uses mangled name to construct a fully qualified name for global
variables. Sometimes DW_TAG_linkage_name attribute is missing from
debug info, so LLDB has to rely on parent entries to construct the
fully qualified name.

Currently, the fallback is handled when the parent DW_TAG is either
DW_TAG_compiled_unit or DW_TAG_partial_unit, which may not work well
for global constants in namespaces. For example:

  namespace ns {
    const int x = 10;
  }

may produce the following debug info:

  <1><2a>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_namespace)
     <2b>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x5e): ns
  <2><2f>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_variable)
     <30>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x61): x
     <34>   DW_AT_type        : <0x3c>
     <38>   DW_AT_decl_file   : 1
     <39>   DW_AT_decl_line   : 2
     <3a>   DW_AT_const_value : 10

Since the fallback didn't handle the case when parent tag is
DW_TAG_namespace, LLDB wasn't able to match the variable by its fully
qualified name "ns::x". This change fixes this by additional check
if the parent is a DW_TAG_namespace.
