For now, map C++ reference types to const-qualified Carbon pointer types
rather than picking between a (non-const) pointer or a value type. This
fixes misbehavior in lowering for reference members in classes and
reference return types.
Update the special-case handling for references as function parameters
so that it continues to map const reference parameters to Carbon
pass-by-value, and unify the code paths for `self` parameters and other
parameters, which were mostly doing the same thing but had some subtle
differences.
Add references to the list of types that we can pass to and from C++
directly, without needing an additional layer of thunks.
Remove duplication between determining whether a parameter needs custom
thunk mapping and whether a function needs a thunk. Now a function needs
a thunk if any parameter or the return type does.
This fixes some inconsistencies; previously:
- We would not require a thunk when passing an `unsigned int`, but if we
had a thunk we'd pass `unsigned int` indirectly.
- We would always require a thunk for an enum parameter, even though
we'd actually pass it directly if its underlying type is a 32- or
64-bit integer.
- We would require a thunk for a nullable pointer, even though
we arrange for all pointer types to have the same ABI in Carbon and
C++, including nullable pointers / Optional(T*).
This also causes us to use a thunk for rvalue reference return types,
which we used to miscompile.
Depends on #6276.
Don't go through the `PerformCall` machinery a second recursive time --
this is redundant, creates additional unnecessary temporaries, and is in
theory wrong because `PerformCall` takes a syntactic argument list (one
argument per callee parameter pattern), but we have a call argument list
(one argument per callee parameter).

This is a follow up of #6082, which added support for reference types,
but not for return types.
C++ Interop Demo:
```carbon
// main.carbon
library "Main";
import Core library "io";
import Cpp inline '''
struct C {
auto Inc() -> void { ++x; }
int x = 0;
};
auto GetC() -> C& {
static C c;
return c;
}
''';
fn Run() -> i32 {
Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
Cpp.GetC()->Inc();
Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
Cpp.GetC()->Inc();
Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
return 0;
}
```
```shell
$ bazel build toolchain:carbon && bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon compile main.carbon && bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon link main.o --output=demo && ./demo
0
1
2
```
**Without this change**:
```shell
main.carbon:19:14: error: semantics TODO: `Unsupported: return type: C &`
Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
^~~~~~~~~~
```
Part of #6148.
Before this change, we wrongly ignore the decision to generate a thunk
for a function with default args by overriding this decision with the
fact the return type by itself doesn't require a thunk.
This causes not generating a thunk which leads to crashing in lowering.
Add tests that show that now thunk is generated in `check` and it no
longer crashes in `lower`.
Follow up of #6108.
The general strategy here is to force use of a thunk when we want to use
default arguments, and have Clang generate uses of the default arguments
on its side of the thunk.
To support this, change the key type used in `clang_decls` from being
just a `Decl*` to being a pair of `Decl*` and number of parameters in
the case of function decls. Import distinct `SemIR::Function`s for each
number of parameters that's used, and corresponding distinct thunks.
