Done, it now uses PerformCopyInitialization to a `const From &`. Global register variables aren't covered, since the reference binds to them directly and that's already broken outside bit_cast (#233283).

`From` keeps the operand's qualifiers, as with `std::bit_cast`, so volatile lvalues are still accepted, and the load is now volatile. Volatile bit-fields are rejected, as with `std::bit_cast`.
