Dana JansensandRichard Smith b24944bfba Allow using CARBON_KIND_SWITCH on a std::variant (#5433)
We use CARBON_KIND_SWITCH for handling the output of TypeIterator in the
TypeStructureBuilder

Here is how the errors look when it is misused:
- If you don't cover ever type in the variant with a case
  ```
Enumeration value 'VariantTypeT1NotHandledInSwitch' not handled in
switch
  ```
Is attached to the CARBON_KIND_SWITCH() usage, the `T1` being a 0-based
index into the std::variant's type list, indicating which type was
missed.
- If you have a case for a type that is not in the variant
  ```
In template: constraints not satisfied for class template
'ValidCaseType' [with T = char]
  ... bunch of instantiation stuff ...
kind_switch.h(124, 12): Because 'char' does not satisfy
'TypeFoundInVariant'
  ```
Where `char` was the type I put in the `CARBON_KIND` macro, which was
not in the variant.
- If you have too many types in your variant (currently > 12)
  ```
In template: static assertion failed due to requirement 'sizeof...(Ts)
<= 12': CARBON_KIND_SWITCH supports std::variant with up to 12 types.
Add more if needed.
  ```
  Is attached to the CARBON_KIND_SWITCH() usage.
