stack-uar.c is flaky (1 in 256 executions) because the random tag
may be zero (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/69221).

This patch works around the issue in the same way as deep-recursion.c
(https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/aa4dfd3736dd1c2e0263eacd09bd613c5784ea73),
by falling back to a neighboring object, which must have a different
(non-zero) tag.

This patch also does a minor cleanup of the aforementioned
deep-recursion.c, for consistency with stack-uar.c.
