[PATCH] Instantiate static constexpr member function of a local struct in a function template earlier.

I've got a follow-up patch which I think addresses an existing bug that
hadn't surfaced.

In the *ParseLateTemplatedFuncDef* function in *lib/Parse/ParseTemplate.cpp*,
we rebuild the *DeclContext* starting from the function decl context up to
the translation unit context with the following logic:

  // Get the list of DeclContexts to reenter.
>   SmallVector<DeclContext*, 4> DeclContextsToReenter;
>   DeclContext *DD = FunD;
>   while (DD && *!DD->isTranslationUnit()*) {
>     DeclContextsToReenter.push_back(DD);
>     DD = DD->getLexicalParent();
>   }


Then we reenter the sequence of decl contexts in reverse, with
*PushDeclContext*.

  // Reenter template scopes from outermost to innermost.
>   SmallVectorImpl<DeclContext *>::reverse_iterator II =
>       DeclContextsToReenter.rbegin();
>   for (; II != DeclContextsToReenter.rend(); ++II) {
>     TemplateParamScopeStack.push_back(new ParseScope(this,
>           Scope::TemplateParamScope));
>     unsigned NumParamLists =
>       Actions.ActOnReenterTemplateScope(getCurScope(), cast<Decl>(*II));
>     CurTemplateDepthTracker.addDepth(NumParamLists);
>     if (*II != FunD) {
>       TemplateParamScopeStack.push_back(new ParseScope(this,
> Scope::DeclScope));
>
> *Actions.PushDeclContext(Actions.getCurScope(), *II);*    }
>   }


This means that *Actions*'* CurContext* must be the translation unit
context, otherwise the assertion in *PushDeclContext* fails. I think the
intention of the following *ContextRAII* was to satisfy this pre-condition,
but instead we save the *CurContext* and stay in the *CurContext*.

// To restore the context after late parsing.
> Sema::ContextRAII GlobalSavedContext(Actions, Actions.CurContext);


The fix is to save the *CurContext* then jump to the translation unit
context in order to satisfy the pre-conditions necessary to rebuild and
reenter the decl contexts.

// To restore the context after late parsing.
> Sema::ContextRAII GlobalSavedContext(

    Actions, Actions.Context.getTranslationUnitDecl());
