LOG: [clang][NFC] Adjust TBAA Base Info API (#73263)

A couple of cleanups.

1) remove an unnecessary check from isValidBaseType.

2) Add a new internal entrypoint 'getValidBaseTypeInfo', for uses where the type is known to be valid.

Added: 
    

Modified: 
    clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenTBAA.cpp
    clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenTBAA.h

Removed:
