Subject: [PATCH 1/6] [Flang][OpenMP] Fix crash with character types in
declare_reduction
Fixes #177501
Character types in OpenMP reductions were causing crashes during lowering.
The issue was that character types need explicit handling for type parameters
and reference wrapping throughout the reduction lowering pipeline. This fix
ensures hlfir.declare operations get proper character length parameters and
that by-ref reductions wrap character types correctly.

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] Address review feedback: improve character type handling
- Use hlfir::genLengthParameters helper instead of manual extraction
to support both constant and runtime-length characters
- Refactor cleanup region to share deallocation logic, with only
different paths for addr extraction (cleaner code as suggested)
- Add clarifying comments about boxchar handling for runtime-length
characters passed by value
Per Tom's review feedback.

Subject: [PATCH 6/6] Fix: Don't clear type params for DeclareOp with
constant-len chars
DeclareOp requires exactly one type parameter for non-boxed characters,
even when they have constant length. The previous logic was incorrectly
clearing type params for constant-len chars (which is only needed for
EmboxOp, not DeclareOp).
This fixes the 'must be provided exactly one type parameter' error.
