When `ParseOptionalCXXScopeSpecifier` sees a leading `decltype`, it parses the 
decltype-specifier and then calls `AnnotateExistingDecltypeSpecifier` to turn 
the consumed tokens into a single `annot_decltype` token. If the 
decltype-specifier fails to parse (e.g. `decltype` is not followed by `(`), 
error recovery may skip tokens, leaving the `EndLoc` returned by 
`ParseDecltypeSpecifier` stale. Annotating with that stale end location no 
longer matches the most recent cached token and trips the invariant asserted in 
`Preprocessor::AnnotatePreviousCachedTokens`:

```cpp
int decltype;      // crashed
int *decltype = 0; // crashed
```

Fix it the same way the sibling pack-indexing path 
(`AnnotateExistingIndexedTypeNamePack`) already does: on error, re-derive 
`EndLoc` from the last cached token. Unlike the pack-indexing branch, this path 
can be entered with a single `decltype` token, so the backtracking cache may be 
empty after `RevertCachedTokens`; guard the query with a new 
`Preprocessor::hasCachedTokenLocation()` helper so we never call 
`getLastCachedTokenLocation()` (which asserts `CachedLexPos != 0`) on an empty 
cache.

Fixes #211207

Subject: [PATCH] [Clang][Parse] Fix assertion when annotating a failed
 decltype-specifier

When `ParseOptionalCXXScopeSpecifier` sees a leading `decltype`, it parses the
decltype-specifier and then calls `AnnotateExistingDecltypeSpecifier` to turn
the consumed tokens into a single `annot_decltype` token. If the
decltype-specifier fails to parse (e.g. `decltype` is not followed by `(`),
error recovery may skip tokens, leaving the `EndLoc` returned by
`ParseDecltypeSpecifier` stale. Annotating with that stale end location no
longer matches the most recent cached token and trips the invariant asserted
in `Preprocessor::AnnotatePreviousCachedTokens`:

```cpp
int decltype;      // crashed
int *decltype = 0; // crashed
```
