Fix segfault with Ptr<T> extension using 'This' type reference (#7719)

* Fix segfault with Ptr<T> extension using 'This' type reference

Set LookupOptions::NoDeref when looking up target type members within
extension declarations to prevent automatic pointer dereferencing that
was causing breadcrumb handling issues and segfaults.

Fixes #7656

* Enhance test for ptr-extension-this-type to verify correctness with interpreter

- Changed function to return sizeof(This) - sizeof(Ptr<int>) + 1
- Modified test to use interpreter with filecheck to verify result equals 1
- Added main() function that calls the extension method and prints result
- Verifies that 'This' correctly refers to Ptr<int> in extension context
