[PATCH 1/2] libstdc++: static_assert that static sized range size is less than inplace_vector capacity

Resolves LWG 4396. Improve inplace_vector(from_range_t, R&& rg)

This patch introduces a new __static_sized_range internal concept, for checking
if is static (independed on the object and know at compile time). The
implementation requires validating that ranges::size(__r) can be used as
constant template argument. For that check we use non_type_t, that is now
always make available in C++26.

The patch does not put extra considerations towards support integer-class size
types, as none of standard statically-sized ranges uses such type as
distance_type. If the need arrives we may later want to make __max_size_type
and __max_diff_type structural.

The test case illustrates that views applied to span<T, N> are still statically
sized, but once applied to array<T, N> are not. This is caused by the fact that
ref_view stores a pointer to array, and deference of unknown pointers does not
produce reference to unknown, and simply yield non-constant expressions
(unknown pointer is not equivalent to pointer to unknown, as it may be null).

libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

	* include/bits/ranges_base.h (__static_sized_range): Define.
	* include/bits/utility.h (std::non_type_t, std::non_type)
	[__cplusplus > 202302L]: Change include guard.
	* include/std/inplace_vector (inplace_vector(std::from_range, __Rg&&)):
	Add static_asserts checking range size.
	* testsuite/23_containers/inplace_vector/cons/from_range_neg.cc: New test.

CC Mathias as he has similar concept in the SIMD patches, and will need
to rebase (and provide second one for __static_sized_range<_Rg, N>).

Testing on x86_64-linux. The *inplace_vector* test already passed.
OK for trunk when all test passes?
