ringabout 497a543510 fixes lent tuple codegen error (#25782)
ref https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/25783

This pull request addresses an issue with addressability of tuple
elements of type `lent` or `var` in Nim, ensuring that expressions
involving these types are handled correctly during type changes. The
main changes introduce a check to prevent attempting to change the type
of tuple elements that are views (`var` or `lent`), and a new test is
added to verify the correct error is raised when trying to take the
address of such elements.

Type system and semantic analysis improvements:

* Added the `isViewTarget` template in `semexprs.nim` to check if a type
is a view (`var` or `lent`), and updated `changeType` to skip type
changes for tuple elements that are views. This prevents invalid
addressability operations on these types.

Testing:

* Added a new test `tlent_tuple_address.nim` to verify that attempting
to take the address of tuple elements of type `lent` correctly produces
an "expression has no address" error.
