[CodeGen][ObjC] Don't retain captured Objective-C pointers at block

creation that are const-qualified.

When a block captures an ObjC object pointer, clang retains the pointer
to prevent prematurely destroying the object the pointer points to
before the block is called or copied.

When the captured object pointer is const-qualified, we can avoid
emitting the retain/release pair since the pointer variable cannot be
modified in the scope in which the block literal is introduced.

For example:

void test(const id x) {
    callee(^{ (void)x; });
}

This patch implements that optimization.
