[clang] [clang][analyzer] Less redundant warnings from FixedAddressChecker (PR #110458)

[Balázs Kéri via cfe-commits]

https://github.com/balazske created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/110458

If a fixed value is assigned to a pointer variable, the checker did emit a warning. If the pointer variable is assigned to another pointer variable, this resulted in another warning. The checker now emits warning only if a value with non-pointer type is assigned (to a pointer variable).

Subject: [PATCH] [clang][analyzer] Less redundant warnings from
 FixedAddressChecker

If a fixed value is assigned to a pointer variable, the checker
did emit a warning. If the pointer variable is assigned to another
pointer variable, this resulted in another warning.
The checker now emits warning only if a value with non-pointer type is assigned
(to a pointer variable).
