We can see the following while running clang-repl in C mode 
```
anutosh491@vv-nuc:/build/anutosh491/llvm-project/build/bin$ ./clang-repl 
--Xcc=-x --Xcc=c --Xcc=-std=c23
clang-repl> printf("hi\n");

```

In debug mode while dumping the generated Module, i see this 
```
clang-repl> printf("hi\n");

hi

Basically I see that CodeGen emits IR for a cell before we know whether 
DiagnosticsEngine has an error. For C code like `printf("hi\n");` without 
<stdio.h>, Sema emits a diagnostic but still produces a "codegen-able" 
`TopLevelStmt`, so the `printf` call is IR-generated into the current module.

Previously, when `Diags.hasErrorOccurred()` was true, we only cleaned up the 
PTU AST and left the CodeGen module untouched. The next successful cell then 
called `GenModule()`, which returned that same module (now also containing the 
next cell’s IR), causing side effects from the failed cell (e.g. printf)
