During Clang 15, 3d2629dd3aab17098813c68b5b76bb864bc5e285 <https://reviews.llvm.org/rG3d2629dd3aab17098813c68b5b76bb864bc5e285> claimed we achieved full support for `consteval` in C++20. However, further testing shows that Clang doesn't correctly handle all of the examples from https://wg21.link/P1073R3 and has several other known issues that are preventing us from defining the `__cpp_consteval` macro.

I think we should only claim Partial support for the moment. Once we correct the major outstanding issues, then I think we should change the status back to full support and define `__cpp_consteval` at the same time (even if it's only to the `201811L` value instead of the latest value from C++2b). This helps users understand the support situation more clearly.
