[clang codegen] avoid to crash when emit init func for global variable with flexible array init

[HerrCai0907]

Fixes: #113187

It will cause assertion failure later.

 - Fixed a crash using ``__array_rank`` on 64-bit targets. (#GH113044).
 - The warning emitted for an unsupported register variable type now points to
   the unsupported type instead of the ``register`` keyword (#GH109776).
