When a for loop contains branches with `break` and an `else` block, variables declared inside those branches were incorrectly discarded from further analysis, leading Mypy to incorrectly report a variable as undefined after the loop or as used before declaration. With this fix, when a for loop's `else` block is considered, variables declared in every branch of the `for` loop body that called `break` are now considered as defined within the body of the loop. Fixes python#14209 Fixes python#19690
