[Bug libstdc++/99402] [10/11 Regression] std::copy creates _GLIBCXX_DEBUG false positive for attempt to subscript a dereferenceable (start-of-sequence) iterator

I eventually prefer to propose this version.

Compared to the previous one I have the _M_can_advance calling the 
former one with correct number of elements to check for advance. And the 
former _M_can_advance is also properly making use of the 
__dp_sign_max_size precision.

Here is the revisited git log:

     libstdc++: [_GLIBCXX_DEBUG] Fix management of __dp_sign_max_size 
[PR 99402]

     __dp_sign precision indicates that we found out what iterator comes 
first or
     last in the range. __dp_sign_max_size is the same plus it gives the 
information
     of the max size of the range that is to say the max_size value such 
that
     distance(lhs, rhs) < max_size.
     Thanks to this additional information we are able to tell when a 
copy of n elements
     to that range will fail even if we do not know exactly how large it is.

     This patch makes sure that we are properly using this information.

     libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

             use latter.

             std::pair<difference_type, _Distance_precision>&, bool)): 
Adapt for
             __dp_sign_max_size.
             (__copy_move_a): Adapt to use 
__glibcxx_check_can_increment_dist.
             (__copy_move_backward_a): Likewise.
             (__equal_aux): Likewise.
             * include/debug/stl_iterator.h (__can_advance(const

Ok to commit if tests are all PASS ?
