fix(debuginfo): disable overflow check for recursive non-enum types

Commit b10edb4 introduce an overflow check when generating debuginfo for expanding recursive types. While this check works correctly for enums, it can incorrectly prune valid debug information for structures.

For example see rust-lang/rust#143241 (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/143241#issuecomment-3073721477). Furthermore, for structures such check does not make sense, since structures with recursively expanding types simply will not compile (there is a `hir_analysis_recursive_generic_parameter` for that).

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
