    libstdc++: Store basic_format_arg::handle in __format::_Arg_value
    
    This patch changes the type of _M_handle member of __format::_Arg_value
    from __format::_HandleBase union member to 
basic_format_arg<_Context>::handle.
    This allows handle to be stored (using placement new) inside _Arg_value at
    compile time, as type _M_handle member now matches stored object.
    
    In addition to above, to make handle usable at compile time, we adjust
    the _M_func signature to match the stored function, avoiding the need
    for reinterpret cast.
    
    To avoid a cycling dependency, where basic_format_arg<_Context> requires
    instantiating _Arg_value<_Context> for its _M_val member, that in turn
    requires basic_format_arg<_Context>::handle, we define handle as nested
    class inside _Arg_value and change basic_format_arg<_Context>::handle
    to alias for it.
    
    Finally, the handle(_Tp&) constructor is now constrained to not accept
    handle itself, as otherwise it would be used instead of copy-constructor
    when constructing from handle&.
    
    As _Arg_value is already templated on _Context, this change should not lead
    to additional template instantiations.
    
    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
    
            * include/std/format (__Arg_value::handle): Define, extracted
            with modification from basic_format_arg::handle.
            (_Arg_value::_Handle_base): Remove.
            (_Arg_value::_M_handle): Change type to handle.
            (_Arg_value::_M_get, _Arg_value::_M_set): Check for handle
            type directly, and return result unmodified.
            (basic_format_arg::__formattable): Remove.
            (basic_format_arg::handle): Replace with alias to
            _Arg_value::handle.
