[clang][PAC] Don't issue a "changes pointer-authentication of pointee type" warning for memcpy/move, etc even if the types have the same schemas

I noticed this while trying to clean up some annoying cast work arounds in the hardening upstreaming:
```cpp
typedef void __ptrauth(0, 0, 0) *ptr_type;
ptr_type p, q;
// assume init
memcpy(&q, &p, sizeof(p));
```
produces
```
passing '__ptrauth(0,0,0) void **' (aka '__ptrauth(0,0,0) unsigned long *') to parameter of type 'const void *' changes pointer-authentication of pointee type
```
The issue is that the analysis producing this warning is looking at the destination type of arg0 and/or arg1, which at the point of checking may already have been cast (either implicitly or explicitly) to `void*` as that is the required type of the destination.
When fixing this we should also consider implicit schemas, and consider warning if the values are address discriminated - though how to suppress that warning is an adventure in its own misery.
