Subject: [PATCH] [libclang]Visit lambda init-capture as vardecl

int foo(){
    int i = 42;
    int j = 43;

    auto l1 = [x = i, &j ](){};
}

in the lambda capture:
- x is visited as VariableRef  (referencing an unvisited VarDecl at the same location)
- i is visited as DelcRefExpr (same as in an assignment)
- j is visited as VariableRef

Visit x as a VarDecl, and stop visiting it as a VariableRef, as it makes
no sense (referencing itself at an unvisited cursor).
