This PR removes a flase-negative `[[lifetimebound]]` verification result that occurs when the annotated attribute escapes via unrelated origin escape kinds (escape through global, escape through field).
Change summary:
- `Checker.cpp` has function `checkAnnotations` which checks if an escaping `Origin` was an annotated parameter. Modified the logic there to only verify `[[lifetimebound]]` in the case that the escape was through a return statement.
