I was only able to hit this with a const rvalue reference - is that
expected, or did I overcomplicate my test case in some way? (this: "const
function_ref<T> a; function_ref<T> b = a;" didn't hit the converting ctor,
it ran the copy ctor as desired. I had to "function_ref<T> b =
static_cast<const function_ref<T> &&>(a);" to tickle it)

Committed the fix/test in cbce88dd3a9ea7161da3c57749cf03873dc7ea79 - open
to suggestions on simplification of the test case if there is some. Oh, I
might've named the new test case a bit poorly... didn't go back and edit
that after it got more baked.
