In some cases, a reference to a structured binding is value-dependent. I think this has been possible since they were originally defined in C++17. C++26 makes it easier to trigger issues, though.

The standard doesn't provide any explicit rules for what to do here, so I invented a rule.  My invented rule seems to be consistent for the cases I can come up with.

Fixes #<!-- -->211930
