[MemoryBuiltins] Fix an issue with hasNoAliasAttr
Summary: `hasNoAliasAttr` is buggy: it checks to see if the called function has a `noalias` attribute, which is incorrect since functions are not even allowed to have the `noalias` attribute. The comment on its only caller, `llvm::isNoAliasFn`, makes it pretty clear that the intention to do the `noalias` check on the return value, and not the callee. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to test this upstream -- fixing this does not change the observable behavior of any of the passes that use this. This is not very surprising, since `noalias` does not tell anything about the contents of the allocated memory (so, e.g., you still cannot fold loads). I'll be happy to be proven wrong though.
