[Clang] Fixed the behavior of C23 auto when an array type was specified for a char * (#189722)
At the time of the implementation of
[N3007](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n3007.htm) in
Clang, when an array type was specified, an error was emitted unless the
deduced type was a `char *`.
After further inspection in the C standard, it turns out that the
inferred type of an `char[]` should be deduced to a `char *`, which
should emit an error if an array type is specified with `auto`.

This now invalidates the following cases:
```c
auto s1[] = "test";
auto s2[4] = "test";
auto s3[5] = "test";
```

Fixes #162694

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
