LOG: [clang] Avoid inheriting [[noreturn]] in explicit function template 
specializations (#150003)

This patch fixes incorrect behavior in Clang where [[noreturn]] (either
spelled or inferred) was being inherited by explicit specializations of
function templates or member function templates, even when those
specializations returned normally.
