LOG: [CIR] Handle empty unions in record lowering and LLVM conversion (#172666)

Handle empty unions in CIR record lowering and LLVM conversion by
emitting padding when needed, guarding `getLargestMember` for
empty/padded unions, and lowering to empty or padded LLVM structs based
on language rules.

Added regression tests for C and C++ empty union lowering in
`clang/test/CIR/CodeGen/empty-union.c` and `empty-union.cpp`.

Added: 
    clang/test/CIR/CodeGen/empty-union.c
    clang/test/CIR/CodeGen/empty-union.cpp

Modified: 
    clang/lib/CIR/CodeGen/CIRGenRecordLayoutBuilder.cpp
    clang/lib/CIR/Dialect/IR/CIRTypes.cpp
    clang/lib/CIR/Lowering/DirectToLLVM/LowerToLLVM.cpp

Removed:
