[CUDA][HIP] Workaround for resolving host device function against wrong-sided function

recommit c77a4078 with fix

https://reviews.llvm.org/D77954 caused regressions due to diagnostics in implicit
host device functions.

For now, it seems the most feasible workaround is to treat implicit host device function and explicit host
device function differently. Basically in device compilation for implicit host device functions, keep the
old behavior, i.e. give host device candidates and wrong-sided candidates equal preference. For explicit
host device functions, favor host device candidates against wrong-sided candidates.

The rationale is that explicit host device functions are blessed by the user to be valid host device functions,
that is, they should not cause diagnostics in both host and device compilation. If diagnostics occur, user is
able to fix them. However, there is no guarantee that implicit host device function can be compiled in
device compilation, therefore we need to preserve its overloading resolution in device compilation.
