I made a new fix where the original inheritance order does not change. There 
are new problems with this solution but probably it is acceptable.
If there is an existing declaration `template <int I = 1> struct X;` and the 
same code is imported, the declaration is duplicated because it is not a 
definition (this is how `ASTImporter` generally works). In this case the 
default value `I = 3` is imported too. The AST is already invalid after this 
import (default value can be specified only once). With a fix like the previous 
solution this problem does not exist.
Another problem is with existing code
```
template <int I = 1> struct X {};
```
and imported code
```
template <int I = 1> struct X {};
template <int I> struct X;
```
The second declaration is imported with inherited default argument but the 
first is not imported, only mapped to the existing one. The "inherited from" 
value in the second declaration (in the To AST) is not linked to the original 
one, a new object is created instead that is "invisible" from the AST (only 
reachable with the `getInheritedFrom` call).
