Shafik Yaghmour 2bd8aeea7e [Clang] Fix unconditional access to Attr pointer when checking if _Nullable is applicable to a type
In TransformAttributedType(...) when checking if _Nullable can be applied to a
type it dereferences TL.getAttr() unconditionally which we can see from the code
earlier in the function is not correct since it is expected to be nullptr in
some cases.

It looks like the correct course of action is to use TL.getModifiedLoc() over
TL.getAttr()->getLocation() in the case that TL.getAttr() returns a nullptr.

These are in-progress notes for the upcoming Clang |version| release.
Release notes for previous releases can be found on
`the Download Page <https://releases.llvm.org/download.html>`_.
Introduction
============
This document contains the release notes for the Clang C/C++/Objective-C
frontend, part of the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure, release |release|. Here we
describe the status of Clang in some detail, including major
improvements from the previous release and new feature work. For the
general LLVM release notes, see `the LLVM
documentation <https://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseNotes.html>`_. All LLVM
releases may be downloaded from the `LLVM releases web
site <https://llvm.org/releases/>`_.
For more information about Clang or LLVM, including information about the
latest release, please see the `Clang Web Site <https://clang.llvm.org>`_ or the
`LLVM Web Site <https://llvm.org>`_.
Note that if you are reading this file from a Git checkout or the
main Clang web page, this document applies to the *next* release, not
the current one. To see the release notes for a specific release, please
see the `releases page <https://llvm.org/releases/>`_.
Potentially Breaking Changes
============================
These changes are ones which we think may surprise users when upgrading to
Clang |release| because of the opportunity they pose for disruption to existing
code bases.
What's New in Clang |release|?
==============================
Some of the major new features and improvements to Clang are listed
here. Generic improvements to Clang as a whole or to its underlying
infrastructure are described first, followed by language-specific
sections with improvements to Clang's support for those languages.
Major New Features
------------------
Bug Fixes
---------
- Fix crash on invalid code when looking up a destructor in a templated class
inside a namespace. This fixes
`Issue 59446 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/59446>`_.
- Fix crash when diagnosing incorrect usage of ``_Nullable`` involving alias
templates. This fixes
`Issue 60344 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/60344>`_.

C++ Language Changes in Clang

- Improved ``-O0`` code generation for calls to ``std::forward_like``. Similarly to
``std::move, std::forward`` et al. it is now treated as a compiler builtin and implemented
directly rather than instantiating the definition from the standard library.
