When determining whether an escape source may alias with a noalias argument, only take provenance captures into account. If only the address of the argument was captured, an access through the escape source is not legal.

Subject: [PATCH] [Inline] Only consider provenance captures for scoped alias
 metadata

When determining whether an escape source may alias with a noalias
argument, only take provenance captures into account. If only the
address of the argument was captured, an access through the escape
source is not legal.
