`onwership_returns`  works only with pointers, since it models user-defined memory allocation functions. Make semantics more clear and report an error if attribute is attached to wrong function.

Closes #99501

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] clang/sema: disallow ownership_returns for functions that
 return non-pointers

ownership_takes expects an argument to a pointer and clang reports an
error if it is not the case.

Since pointers consumed by ownership_takes are produced by functions
with ownership_returns attribute, it make sence to report an error
if function does not return a pointer type.
