[racerd] fix pattern matching for abstract methods returning conditional ownership

Summary:
`getThis` is an idiom for allowing Builder sub-classes to jump through the hoops of covariance plus java generics with self types. It's declared as abstract in the (generic) inner `Builder` class of a root class, and subclasses declare generic `Builder`s that inherit from the generic root `Builder` and trivially implement this method by returning `this`.  Obviously, this returns conditional ownership (if `this` is owned, then the return value is owned).

The way it's typically used is
```
T foo() {
  ...
  return getThis();
}
```

However, because abstract methods need dynamic dispatch for proper summarisation, we miss all that.  A workaround was been implemented in D8947992 (see that for context), but it was buggy -- it required that the LHS type in the assignment

```
lhs = this.getThis();
```
is the same as the type of `this`, but this is too strict (eg, when using casts).

Here, the condition is changed to requiring that the return type of the method is the same as the type of `this`.

We also avoid asking for the `procdesc` as everything needed is in the attributes.
