Subject: [PATCH] [LifetimeSafety] Model GNU statement expressions

A statement expression `({ ...; e; })` carried none of its final expression's
loans, so a borrow used through it was silently dropped. Forward the statement
expression's origins to `e` (sharing, so the loan `e` produces sits in this
origin before the body's locals expire), and mark the value used in a new
VisitStmtExpr. That use lands at the statement expression's program point, which
the CFG places after the body's locals expire, keeping the borrow live across
those expiries: a borrow of a body-local is reported as use-after-scope, and a
borrow forwarded from an outer object propagates to its consumer.
