[llvm] [Clang][HLSL] prevent phi codgen of isTokenLike types (PR #162363)

[Farzon Lotfi via llvm-commits]

https://github.com/farzonl created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/162363

fixes #161754

When the GVN pass is PerformLoadPRE we need to check if it might be doing this load on a token like type. This is because if we don't GVN will use the SSAUpdater to insert a phi node to reduce duplicate resource.getpointer calls.

Because in an earlier commit: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/01c0a8409a21344c822deba9467bd9d547f6e5d8 we made the verifier error with `PHI nodes cannot have token type!`

This test case will fail today if we try to perform this load optimization

This will impact clang aswell because `isTokenLikeTy` also checks for `isTokenTy` Clang is likely also failing validation with token types but just doesn't have a test case because the validator would error if it were in a phi node.
