Remove the fixit for the diagnostics regarding capturing autoreleasing variables in a block
ClosedPublic

Summary

The fixit is actively harmful, as it encourages developers to ignore the warning and to write unsafe code.
It is almost impossible to write safe code while capturing autoreleasing variables in the block, as in order to check that the block is never called in the autoreleasing pool the developer has to check the transitive closure of all potential callers of the block.
