Use AlwaysRememberedExpr to bypass impurity check for class_exists type narrowing

Instead of incorrectly marking class_exists, interface_exists, trait_exists,
and enum_exists as having no side effects (they trigger autoloading),
wrap the FuncCall in AlwaysRememberedExpr in ClassExistsFunctionTypeSpecifyingExtension.
This bypasses the rememberPossiblyImpureFunctionValues check in TypeSpecifier::createForExpr()
while keeping the correct hasSideEffects semantics.
