[lldb][SymbolFileDWARF] Support by-name lookup of global variables in inline namespaces
Currently evaluating an expression involving a global variable inside
an inline namespace will fail to lookup said variable. This is because
the `SymbolFileDWARF::FindGlobalVariables` discards from consideration
all DIEs whose decl_context doesn't exactly match that of the lookup.
This patch relaxes this restriction by checking whether C++ rules
would permit the lookup. This is permitted by the DWARFv5 spec in
chapter `3.2.2 Namespace Entries`:
```
A namespace may have a DW_AT_export_symbols attribute which is a flag
which indicates that all member names defined within the namespace may be
referenced as if they were defined within the containing namespace.
```
The motivation for this is evaluating `std::ranges` expressions, which
heavily rely on global variables inside inline namespaces. E.g.,
`std::views::all(...)` is just an invocation of the `operator()`
on `std::ranges::views::__cpo::all`.
**Testing**
