Allow using ReturnNode() in @generated code (#51715)

IRTools.jl currently tries to use `ReturnNode()` to model unreachable
block terminators but it fails in `find_ssavalue_uses`. This PR adds a
check to enable using `ReturnNode()` in untyped code.

One other alternative for frontends is to use an instruction known to
terminate (`Core.throw`) instead. See
FluxML/IRTools.jl#115 for more context.
