Use type based qualification for unions
Union field access is currently qualified based on the qualification of
a value previously assigned to the union. At the same time, every union
access transmutes the content of the union, which might result in a
different qualification.
For example, consider constants A and B as defined below, under the
current rules neither contains interior mutability, since a value used
in the initial assignment did not contain `UnsafeCell` constructor.
```rust
#![feature(untagged_unions)]
union U { i: u32, c: std::cell::Cell<u32> }
const A: U = U { i: 0 };
const B: std::cell::Cell<u32> = unsafe { U { i: 0 }.c };
```
To avoid the issue, the changes here propose to consider the content of
a union as opaque and use type based qualification for union types.
Fixes #90268.
