[Clang] Reject this void explicit object parameters (CWG2915) (#108817

) https://cplusplus.github.io/CWG/issues/2915.html Previously, `struct A { void f(this void); };` was accepted with `A::f` being a member function with no non-object arguments, but it was still a little wonky because it was still considered an explicit object member function. Now, this is rejected immediately. This applies to any language mode with explicit object parameters as this is a DR (C++23 and C++26)
