Daniil Kovalev 644f364d3d [AutoDiff] Use LinkEntity::SecondaryPointer for diff witness (#82412) ...

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`.
