This PR removes a flase-negative `[[lifetimebound]]` verification result that 
occurs when the annotated attribute escapes via unrelated origin escape kinds 
(escape through global, escape through field).

Change summary:
- `Checker.cpp` has function `checkAnnotations` which checks if an escaping 
`Origin` was an annotated parameter. Modified the logic there to only verify 
`[[lifetimebound]]` in the case that the escape was through a return statement.
