Good catch, I keep forgetting we need a C-style cast with deducing
this.
Changes in v2:
- use a C-style cast instead of static_cast when casting explicit
this parameter to the curret instantiation, and add test for that
Testing on x86_64-pc-ilnux-gnu in progress, OK for trunk once
passes?

Subject: [PATCH] libstdc++: Use deducing this in std::bind when available
[PR80564]
Implement the cv-qual forwarding required by std::bind using deducing
this when available, instead of needing 4 operator() overloads. Using
deducing this here is more complicated here than in other call
wrappers because std::bind is not really "perfect forwarding": it
doesn't forward value category, and along with const-ness it also
forwards volatile-ness (before C++20).
The old implementation suffers from the same problem that other
SFINAE-friendly call wrappers have which is solved by using deducing
this (see p5.5 of the deducing this paper P0847R7).
PR libstdc++/80564
libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
* include/std/functional (__cv_like): New.
(_Bind::_Res_type): Don't define when not needed.
(_Bind::__dependent): Likewise.
(_Bind::_Res_type_cv): Likewise.
(_Bind::operator()) [_GLIBCXX_EXPLICIT_THIS_PARAMETER]:
Define as two instead of four overloads using deducing
this.
* testsuite/20_util/bind/cv_quals_2.cc: Ignore SFINAE
diagnostics inside headers.
* testsuite/20_util/bind/ref_neg.cc: Likewise.
* testsuite/20_util/bind/cv_quals_4.cc: New test.
