  [analyzer] Workaround crash on encountering Class non-type template parameters

The Clang Static Analyzer will crash on this code:
```lang=C++
struct Box {
  int value;
};
template <Box V> int get() {
  return V.value;
}
template int get<Box{-1}>();
```

The problem is that we don't account for encountering `TemplateParamObjectDecl`s
within the `DeclRefExpr` handler in the `ExprEngine`.

IMO we should create a new memregion for representing such template
param objects, to model their language semantics.
Such as:
 - it should have global static storage
 - for two identical values, their addresses should be identical as well

I was thinking of introducing a `TemplateParamObjectRegion` under `DeclRegion`
for this purpose. It could have `TemplateParamObjectDecl` as a field.

The `TemplateParamObjectDecl::getValue()` returns `APValue`, which might
represent multiple levels of structures, unions and other goodies -
making the transformation from `APValue` to `SVal` a bit complicated.

That being said, for now, I think having `Unknowns` for such cases is
definitely an improvement to crashing, hence I'm proposing this patch.
