Support Control Flow type Refinements for "break" and "continue" statements (#1004)
Fixes: https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/913

This PR adds support for type refinements around guard clauses that use
`break` and `continue` statements inside a loop, similar to how guard
clauses with `return` is supported.

I had some free time today, so I figure I'd give a shot at a naïve fix
for this at the very least.

## Resulting Change:

Luau now supports type refinements within loops where a `continue` or
`break` guard clause was used.
For example:
```lua
for _, object in objects :: {{value: string?}} do
    if not object.value then
        continue
    end
    local x: string = object.value -- OK; Used to emit "Type 'string?' could not be converted into 'string'"
end
```
