Stop tracking retain count of OSObject after escape to void * / other primitive types

[george.karpenkov]

Summary

Escaping to void * / uint64_t / others non-OSObject * should stop tracking,
as such functions can have heterogeneous semantics depending on context, and can not always be annotated.

Sounds reasonable.
