Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [clang][NFC] Add documentation for `CastExpr::path()`.

This didn't have any documentation, so I had to do some experimenting in
godbolt when I used this in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/84138,
and my reviewer later also had some
[questions](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/84138#discussion_r1524855434)
about this, so I figured it would be worth adding documentation.
