Check for resource exhaustion when recursively parsing declarators

With sufficiently tortured code, it's possible to cause a stack
overflow when parsing declarators. Thus, we now check for resource
exhaustion when recursively parsing declarators so that we can at least
warn the user we're about to crash before we actually crash.

Fixes #51642
