By analogy with C structs, this seems to be legal, if probably discouraged.
It's only if the ivar is read from or written to that there's a problem.
Running a program that gets the "address" of an instance variable does in
fact return the offset when the base "object" is nil.
This isn't a full revert because r164442 includes some diagnostic tweaks
as well; those have been kept.
This partially reverts r164442 / 08965091770c9b276c238bac2f716eaa4da2dca4.

Like with struct fields, we want to catch cases like this early,
so that we can produce better diagnostics and path notes:
PointObj *p = nil;
int *px = &p->_x; // should warn here
*px = 1;
