Daniil Kovalev a86e717991 [AutoDiff] Use LinkEntity::SecondaryPointer for diff witness ...

If `LinkEntity::isTypeKind()` is true, `IRGenModule::getAddrOfLLVMVariable`
assumes that we can safely call `LinkEntity::getType()`, which does
`reinterpret_cast` of `LinkEntity::Pointer` to `TypeBase *`. However, for SIL
differentiability witness, the pointer has `SILDifferentiabilityWitness *`
type, which is not derived from `TypeBase`. So, such a cast is not allowed.

Just as with `ProtocolWitnessTableLazyAccessFunction` and
`ProtocolWitnessTableLazyCacheVariable` link entity kinds (which are
also type kinds), we should use `SecondaryPointer` instead of `Pointer` for
storing payload here, while setting `Pointer` to `nullptr`.
