[clang] Fix an implicit cast to a base ref counted class generates a false positive. (PR #80934)

[Ryosuke Niwa via cfe-commits]

https://github.com/rniwa created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80934

The bug was caused by isRefCountable erroneously returning false for a class with both ref() and deref() functions defined because we were not resetting the base paths results between looking for "ref()" and "deref()"

 false positive.

with both ref() and deref() functions defined because we were not resetting
the base paths results between looking for "ref()" and "deref()"
