Issue 140483
Summary [Clang] `-Wdangling` does not emit warning when a dangerous call invoked in STL

    Please be patient reading all examples below - root of the evil hidden in the fact that `std::pair<const A, B>` not the same as `std::pair<A, B>` but the first one might be implicitly converted to the second one. Such implicit conversion might lead to hidden UB if not carefully coded.

Assume we have a `proj` lambda like this:
```
const auto proj = 
        [](const std::pair<std::string, int>& node [[clang::lifetimebound]])
         -> const std::pair<std::string, int>& {
            return node;
 };
```

Let's call this lambda directly by creating the problem with dangling reference artifically:
```
std::pair<const std::string, int> aa;
const auto& a = proj(aa);
```
Then we will watch `warning: temporary bound to local reference 'a' will be destroyed at the end of the full-_expression_ [-Wdangling]` emited - that's fine.

Now let's create conditions under which the function will be called outside of user code, but the problem with the dangling reference will still be relevant:
```
std::map<std::string, int> counters = { {"hello", 5}, {"world", 5} };
for (const auto& node : counters | std::views::transform(proj)) {
    (void)node; // dangling
}
```

And here we will not see that warning emited - that's the problem that I am creating this issue about and which should be fixed.
