Subject: [PATCH] [clang][SemaCXX] Fix crash when using static_cast to _Atomic
 types in C++

This PR fixes a compiler crash (assertion failure) in both the constant 
evaluator (`ExprConstant.cpp`) and LLVM CodeGen (`CGExprAgg.cpp`) when 
evaluating a `static_cast` to an `_Atomic` type in C++ (e.g. 
`static_cast<_Atomic(struct S)>(S{})`).

When evaluating casts, `CastOperation::CastOperation` in `SemaCast.cpp` was 
unconditionally stripping the `_Atomic` qualifier from the destination type 
using `getAtomicUnqualifiedType()`. This behavior is correct for C23 (under C23 
6.5.4p6, where cast expressions yield the non-atomic version of the type), but 
it is incorrect for C++ where `_Atomic(T)` is treated as a distinct type 
wrapper.

Because `_Atomic` was stripped from the destination type in C++, the cast 
evaluation mechanism built the AST conversion targeting the underlying type `T` 
(resulting in a `CK_ConstructorConversion` for class types).

However, the resulting `CXXStaticCastExpr` node was still created with the 
original type `_Atomic(T)`. This type mismatch (an atomic node wrapping a 
constructor conversion targeting a non-atomic struct) triggered assertions 
during both constant evaluation and code generation.

Modify `CastOperation::CastOperation` to only strip the `_Atomic` qualifier in 
C mode. In C++ mode, we preserve the `_Atomic` wrapper, ensuring that 
`InitializationSequence` properly evaluates the target type as `_Atomic(T)` and 
adds the implicit `CK_NonAtomicToAtomic` conversion step.

Fixes #207610.
