Subject: [PATCH] Suppress printing lambda body for constexpr diagnostics

closes: 125914

Introduce `SupressLambdaBody` `PrintingPolicy` that is used only for
constexpr diagnostics. This ensures `--print-ast` still works the same.

Add two tests:
1. To ast-printer-lambda to ensure `--print-ast` works the same.
2. Ensure lambda body is not printed for constexpr diagnostics.

 - Improved error recovery for missing semicolons after class members. Clang now avoids
