    libstdc++: Fix std::basic_format_arg::handle for BasicFormatters
    
    std::basic_format_arg::handle is supposed to format its value as const
    if that is valid, to reduce the number of instantiations of the
    formatter's format function. I made a silly typo so that it checks
    formattable_with<TD, Context> not formattable_with<const TD, Context>,
    which breaks support for BasicFormatters i.e. ones that can only format
    non-const types.
    
    There's a static_assert in the handle constructor which is supposed to
    improve diagnostics for trying to format a const argument with a
    formatter that doesn't support it. That condition can't fail, because
    the std::basic_format_arg constructor is already constrained to check
    that the argument type is formattable. The static_assert can be removed.
    
    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
    
            * include/std/format (basic_format_arg::handle::__maybe_const_t):
            Fix condition to check if const type is formattable.
            (basic_format_arg::handle::handle(T&)): Remove redundant
            static_assert.
            * testsuite/std/format/formatter/basic.cc: New test.
