[CodeGen] Don't emit lifetime intrinsics for some local variables

Summary:
Current generation of lifetime intrinsics does not handle cases like:

```
  {
    char x;
  l1:
    bar(&x, 1);
  }
  goto l1;

```
We will get code like this:

```
  %x = alloca i8, align 1
  call void @llvm.lifetime.start(i64 1, i8* nonnull %x)
  br label %l1
l1:
  %call = call i32 @bar(i8* nonnull %x, i32 1)
  call void @llvm.lifetime.end(i64 1, i8* nonnull %x)
  br label %l1
```

So the second time bar was called for x which is marked as dead.
Lifetime markers here are misleading so it's better to remove them at all.
This type of bypasses are rare, e.g. code detects just 8 functions building
clang (2329 targets).
