[lldb] Disable looking at pointee types to find synthetic value for non-ObjC

After D134378, we started seeing crashes with incomplete types (in the
context of shared libraries).

When trying to print a `std::vector<int> &` with only debug info for a
declaration, we now try to use the formatter after D134378. With an
incomplete type, this somehow goes into infinite recursion with the
frames

```
lldb_private::ValueObject::Dereference
lldb_private::ValueObjectSynthetic::CreateSynthFilter
lldb_private::ValueObjectSynthetic::ValueObjectSynthetic
lldb_private::ValueObject::CalculateSyntheticValue
lldb_private::ValueObject::HasSyntheticValue
```

This has to do with `FrontEndWantsDereference` that some STL formatters
set, causing recursion between the formatter (which tries to dereference),
and dereferencing (which wants to know if there's a formatter to avoid dereferencing).

The reason this only started appearing after D134378 was because
previously with incomplete types, for names with `<`, lldb would attempt
to parse template parameter DIEs, which were empty, then create an empty
`ClassTemplateSpecializationDecl` which overrode the name used to lookup
a formatter in `FormattersMatchData()` to not include template
parameters (e.g. `std::vector<> &`). After D134378 we don't create a
`ClassTemplateSpecializationDecl` when there are no template parameters
and the name to lookup a formatter is the original name (e.g.
`std::vector<int> &`).

The code to try harder with incomplete child compiler types was added in
D79554 for ObjC purposes.
