Issue 181569
Summary clang -Wunreachable-code triggers on instantiation of classes with [[noreturn]] constructors
Labels clang

    Reproducer -- [godbolt](https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/5G5f5E5GY):

Compiling
```cpp
#include <stdlib.h>

template <typename Args> struct NoReturn {
  [[noreturn]] NoReturn() {
    exit(123);
  }
};

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
 NoReturn<int> n;
}
```

With `-std=c++26 -Wunreachable-code` this yields the following warning, while the code clearly does execute:
```
<source>:10:5: warning: code will never be executed [-Wunreachable-code]
   10 |     NoReturn<int> n;
      | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 warning generated.
Execution build compiler returned: 0
Program returned: 123
```

I've reproduced this locally and on godbolt with `21.1.8`, `21.1.0` and `20.1.0`. It does not reproduce with `19.1.0`.

(and yes, I have a real use case for `[[noreturn]]` constructors! :) )
