The following patch implements the C++26
P3533R2 - constexpr virtual inheritance
paper.
The changes include not rejecting it for C++26, tweaking the
error wording to show that it is valid in C++26, adjusting
synthesized_method_walk not to make synthetized cdtors non-constexpr
just because of virtual base classes in C++26 and various tweaks in
constexpr.cc so that it can deal with the expressions used for
virtual base member accesses or cdtor calls which need __in_chrg
and/or __vtt_parm arguments to be passed in some cases implicitly when
they aren't passed explicitly. And dynamic_cast constant evaluation
tweaks so that it handles also expressions with types with virtual bases.

* constexpr.cc: Implement C++26 P3533R2 - constexpr virtual
inheritance.
(is_valid_constexpr_fn): Don't reject constexpr cdtors in classes
with virtual bases for C++26, adjust error wording.
(cxx_bind_parameters_in_call): Add ORIG_FUN argument, add
values for __in_chrg and __vtt_parm arguments when needed.
(cxx_eval_dynamic_cast_fn): Adjust function comment, HINT -1
should be possible. For C++26 if obj is cast from POINTER_PLUS_EXPR,
attempt to use cxx_fold_indirect_ref to simplify it and if successful,
build ADDR_EXPR of that.
(cxx_eval_call_expression): Add orig_fun variable, set it to
fun before looking through clones, pass it to
cxx_bind_parameters_in_call.
(reduced_constant_expression_p): Add SZ argument, pass DECL_SIZE
of FIELD_DECL e.index to recursive calls and don't return false
if SZ is non-NULL and there are unfilled fields with bit position
at or above SZ.
(cxx_fold_indirect_ref_1): Handle reading of vtables using
ptrdiff_t dynamic type instead of some pointer type. Set el_sz
to DECL_SIZE_UNIT value rather than TYPE_SIZE_UNIT of
DECL_FIELD_IS_BASE fields in classes with virtual bases.
(cxx_fold_indirect_ref): In canonicalize_obj_off lambda look
through COMPONENT_REFs with DECL_FIELD_IS_BASE in classes with
virtual bases and adjust off correspondingly. Remove assertion that
off is integer_zerop, pass tree_to_uhwi (off) instead of 0 to the
cxx_fold_indirect_ref_1 call.
* cp-tree.h (publicly_virtually_derived_p): Declare.
(reduced_constant_expression_p): Add another tree argument defaulted
to NULL_TREE.
* method.cc (synthesized_method_walk): Don't clear *constexpr_p
if there are virtual bases for C++26.
* class.cc (build_base_path): Compute fixed_type_p and
virtual_access before checks for build_simple_base_path instead of
after that and conditional cp_build_addr_expr. Use build_simple_path
if !virtual_access even when v_binfo is non-NULL.
(layout_virtual_bases): For build_base_field calls use
access_public_node rather than access_private_node if
publicly_virtually_derived_p.
(build_vtbl_initializer): Revert 2018-09-18 and 2018-12-11 changes.
(publicly_virtually_derived_p): New function.
