[Sema] Fix lifetime extension for temporaries in range-based for loops in C++23 (#145164)

C++23 mandates that temporaries used in range-based for loops are
lifetime-extended
to cover the full loop. This patch adds a check for loop variables and
compiler-
generated `__range` bindings to apply the correct extension.

Includes test cases based on examples from CWG900/P2644R1.

Fixes #109793

+- Clang no longer emits a spurious -Wdangling-gsl warning in C++23 when
+  iterating over an element of a temporary container in a range-based
+  for loop.(#GH109793, #GH145164)
 
 - Fixed false positives in ``-Wformat-truncation`` and ``-Wformat-overflow``
   diagnostics when floating-point numbers had both width field and plus or space
