By analogy with C structs, this seems to be legal, if probably discouraged.
It's only if the ivar is read from or written to that there's a problem.
Running a program that gets the "address" of an instance variable does in
fact return the offset when the base "object" is nil.
This isn't a full revert because r164442 includes some diagnostic tweaks
as well; those have been kept.
This partially reverts r164442 / 08965091770c9b276c238bac2f716eaa4da2dca4.

Like with struct fields, we want to catch cases like this early,
so that we can produce better diagnostics and path notes:
PointObj *p = nil;
int *px = &p->_x; // should warn here
*px = 1;

This should speed up activities that need to access bindings by cluster,
such as invalidation and dead-bindings cleaning. In some cases all we save
is the cost of building the region cluster map, but other times we can
actually avoid traversing the rest of the store.
In casual testing, this produced a speedup of nearly 10% analyzing SQLite,
with /less/ memory used.
