Don't compute a patched/semantic storage class.
For variables and functions clang used to store two storage classes. The one
"as written" in the code and a patched one, which, for example, propagates
static to the following decls.
This apparently is from the days clang lacked linkage computation. It is now
redundant and this patch removes it.
