    libstdc++: Assert that produced layout_stride::mapping is unique.
    
    This add an assertions checking if the combination of strides
    and extents passed to layout_stride::mapping is unique.
    
    To avoid excessive performance impact, in non-debug mode only
    checks that are are O(rank) (i.e. similar cost as operator())
    are performed. To achieve that, for the ranks greater or equal,
    we perform two separate checks:
    * required_span_size() > mdspan::__size(_M_extents) - this is
      a necessary but not sufficient condition, that is O(rank) and
      is always performed.
    * building a permutation using insertion-sort based algorithm,
      this is O(rank^2) and is performed only in debug modes.
    
    The check for non-zero stride values (performed for all non-zero
    ranks) is done only if the size of the multidimensional index space
    is not empty. This follows the resolution of LWG4603, and provides
    consistent behavior for constructing layout_stride mapping from
    layout_left/right directly or from strides extracted from it.
    
    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
    
            * include/std/mdspan (layout_stride::mapping::_M_check_unique):
            Define.
            (layout_stride::mapping(const extents_type&, span<....>)):
            Add __glibcxx_assert on _M_check_unique.
            * testsuite/23_containers/mdspan/layouts/stride_neg.cc:
            Test for the new added assertions.
