LOG: [clang-tidy] Fix crash on pointer arithmetic with an incomplete type in 
bugprone-pointer-arithmetic-on-polymorphic-object (#215724)

This commit fixes a crash in clangd / clang-tidy: running
the `bugprone-pointer-arithmetic-on-polymorphic-object` check on code
that does pointer arithmetic on a pointer to an **incomplete type** (a
type that is forward-declared but never defined) makes the matcher hit
an assertion and abort.

AI note: Used AI tools for code analysis and wording polish.
