Only when the declaration is seen by others, such the callsite in `baz`, the declaration makes a difference by having the callsite use a uniqufied name.

The debug data generation uses `hasPrototype` while `getAs<FunctionProtoType>` is used as overloadable attribute processing as long as unique linkage name processing before this change. More specifically, the following function definition is represented by `FunctionProtoType`  while it does not `hasPrototype`.

Haven't figured out anything useful yet. As far as I can tell, the debug info generation code is shared between C++ and ObjC. Using `getAs<FunctionProtoType>` works for C++ but not for ObjectC where it crashes when computing a mangled name for something like 


```
void test() {
  __block A a;
  ^{ (void)a; };
}

```

Below are the failing tests which are all like that:

  Clang :: CodeGenCXX/cp-blocks-linetables.cpp
  Clang :: CodeGenCXX/debug-info-block-invocation-linkage-name.cpp
  Clang :: CodeGenCXX/debug-info-blocks.cpp
  Clang :: CodeGenObjCXX/nested-ehlocation.mm
  Clang :: CodeGenObjCXX/property-objects.mm
  Clang :: CodeGenObjCXX/synthesized-property-cleanup.mm
