type certainty: clear `DefId` when an expression's type changes to non-adt

Fixes #12585

The root cause of the ICE in the linked issue was in the expression `one.x`, in the array literal.

The type of `one` is the `One` struct: an adt with a DefId, so its certainty is `Certain(def_id_of_one)`. However, the field access `.x` can then change the type (to `i32` here) and that should update that `DefId` accordingly. It does do that correctly when `one.x` would be another adt with a DefId:

97ba291d5a/clippy_utils/src/ty/type_certainty/mod.rs (L90-L91)

but when it *isn't* an adt and there is no def id (which is the case in the linked issue: `one.x` is an i32), it keeps the `DefId` of `One`, even though that's the wrong type (which would then lead to a contradiction later when joining `Certainty`s):
97ba291d5a/clippy_utils/src/ty/type_certainty/mod.rs (L92-L93)

In particular, in the linked issue, `from_array([one.x, two.x])` would try to join the `Certainty` of the two array elements, which *should* have been `[Certain(None), Certain(None)]`, because `i32`s have no `DefId`, but instead it was `[Certain(One), Certain(Two)]`, because the DefId wasn't cleared from when it was visiting `one` and `two`. This is the "contradiction" that could be seen in the ICE message

... so this changes it to clear the `DefId` when it isn't an adt.

cc `@smoelius` you implemented this initially in #11135, does this change make sense to you?
