[COMMITTED 2/2] c++: Fix constexpr vs. reference parameter.

[expr.const] specifically rules out mentioning a reference even if its
address is never used, because it implies indirection that is similarly
non-constant for a pointer variable.

Tested x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, applying to trunk.

	PR c++/66477
	* constexpr.c (cxx_eval_constant_expression) [PARM_DECL]: Don't
	defer loading the value of a reference.
