Let Clang emit `dead_on_return` attribute on pointer arguments that are passed indirectly, namely, large aggregates that the ABI mandates be passed by value; thus, the parameter is destroyed within the callee. Writes to such arguments are not observable by the caller after the callee returns. This should desirably enable further MemCpyOpt/DSE optimizations. Previous discussion: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-add-dead-on-return-attribute/86871.
