Fix issue with never-constexpr __construct_at in C++ < 20. (#87403)

The application of constexpr to __construct_at triggers weird linker
errors when building LLVM with modules enabled and C++ < 20.

> ld.lld: error: undefined hidden symbol: void*
std::__1::__voidify[abi:nn190000]<llvm::sys::ProcessStatistics>(llvm::sys::ProcessStatistics&)
>>>> referenced by construct_at.h:52
(/usr/local/bin/../include/c++/v1/__memory/construct_at.h:52)
>>>> Program.cpp.o:(llvm::sys::Wait(llvm::sys::ProcessInfo const&,
std::__1::optional<unsigned int>, std::__1::basic_string<char,
std::__1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char>>*,
std::__1::optional<llvm::sys::ProcessStatistics>*, bool)) in archive
lib/libLLVMSupport.a

I suspect this is related to undefined behavior caused by the fact that
construct_at is never really constexpr (which is UB NDR).

I'm unsure how to meaningfully write a test for this, as I haven't been
able to trigger it in smaller unit tests

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch

Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, LLVM Office Hours or Regular sync-ups.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
