<summary>Changes</summary>

Before C++23, we would check a constexpr function body to diagnose if the 
function can never be evaluated in a constant expression context. This was 
previously required standards behavior, but C++23 relaxed the restrictions with 
P2448R2. While this checking is useful, it is also quite expensive, especially 
in pathological cases (see #<!-- -->92924 for an example), because it means the 
mere presence of a constexpr function definition will require constant 
evaluation even if the function is not used within the TU.

Clang suppresses diagnostics in system headers by default and system headers 
(like STL implementations) can be full of constexpr function bodies. Now we 
suppress the check for a diagnostic if the function definition is in a system 
header or if the `-Winvalid-constexpr` diagnostic is disabled. This should have 
some mild compile time performance improvements.

Also, the previous implementation would disable the diagnostic in C++23 mode 
entirely. Due to the benefit of the check, this patch now makes it possible to 
enable the diagnostic explicitly in C++23 mode.

+- When compiling a constexpr function, Clang will check to see whether the
+  function can *never* be used in a constant expression context and issues a
+  diagnostic under the ``-Winvalid-constexpr`` diagostic flag (which defaults
+  to an error). This check can be expensive because the mere presence of a
+  function marked ``constexpr`` will cause us to undergo constant expression
+  evaluation, even if the function is not called within the translation unit
+  being compiled. Due to the expense, Clang no longer checks constexpr function
+  bodies when the function is defined in a system header file or when
+  ``-Winvalid-constexpr`` is not enabled for the function definition, which
+  should result in mild compile-time performance improvements.
