[analyzer] Relax assertion in BugReporterVisitors.cpp isInitializatio…

…nOfVar (#125044)

If we see a variable declaration (aka. DeclStmt), and the VarRegion it
declared doesn't have Stack memspace, we assumed that it must be a local
static variable.
However, the declared variable may be an extern declaration of a global.

In this patch, let's admit that local extern declarations are a thing.

For the sake of completeness, I also added one more test for
thread_locals - which are implicitly considered statics btw. (the
`isStaticLocal()` correctly also considers thread locals as local
statics).

Fixes #124975
