LOG: [clang-tidy] Fix readability-redundant-parentheses false positive on 
typeof (#223512)

Preserve the required parentheses around the operand of `typeof`,
`typeof_unqual`, and GNU `__typeof__` by skipping `ParenExpr` nodes
whose immediate parent is a `TypeOfExprTypeLoc`. Redundant inner
parentheses such as those in `typeof((x))` are still diagnosed.

Fixes #220899.
