[CWG2785](https://wg21.link/cwg2785) clarifies that a *requires-expression* is never type-dependent, it always has type `bool`. That means that in a snippet like this:
```cpp
void g(void *);

template <typename T>
void f() {
  g(requires { T(); });
}
```
The call to `g` should be diagnosed as invalid (`bool` is not convertible to `void *`) even if the template is never instantiated. Clang does the right thing since version 10: https://godbolt.org/z/s61rEbsfz
