Not so because LLDB sends `FieldOffsets` (from `DW_AT_data_member_location`s) 
to clang. I believe it should work but then I understand it is a bit bold 
change. clang is already forced for the DWARF-compliant layout by 
`FieldOffsets`.

Before this patch LLDB still sends `FieldOffsets` to clang but clang wants a 
larger layout because it does not see the `[[no_unique_address]]` attribute. 
And therefore it asserts then because the clang offsets cannot fit the 
`FieldOffsets` from `DW_AT_data_member_location`s.

Thanks for this possible catch but I hope the patch does solve that.

Sure the clang+llvm+lldb testsuites do PASS with this patch.  (Otherwise I 
would not send this patch for approval, at least I would mark it by RFC/WIP 
which I did not.)
