Subject: [PATCH] [clang] Fix potential constant expression checking with
 constexpr-unknown.

071765749a70b22fb62f2efc07a3f242ff5b4c52 improved constexpr-unknown
diagnostics, but potential constant expression checking broke in the
process: we produce diagnostics in more cases. Suppress the diagnostics
as appropriate.

This fix affects -Winvalid-constexpr and the enable_if attribute. (The
-Winvalid-constexpr diagnostic isn't really important right now, but it
will become important if we allow constexpr-unknown with pre-C++23
standards.)

Fixes #149041.  Fixes #149188.
(cherry picked from commit 6a60f18997d62b0e2842a921fcb6beb3e52ed823)
