`PerformCppOverloadResolution` computes an overload set from a
`CppOverloadSetId`, but the compiler sometimes needs to synthesise a
local overload set for witnesses. `PerformCppOverloadResolution` now
requires callers to produce the `CppOverloadSet` to address this
problem.
Treat the initial sequence ofarguments in a call to a C++ function up to
and including the last argument that is a type or template as being the
explicit template arguments for the call, rather than rejecting them
because they can't be converted to the parameter types.
Implements the current direction on leads issue #6768, except that no
syntax for explicitly annotating an argument as being a template
argument is provided.

Allow passing a C++ template as a template template argument to another
C++ template. Does not allow passing a Carbon generic as an argument.
Depends on #6474.
Expose C++ class templates, variable templates, alias templates, and
concepts as callable values in Carbon, and map calls to them into
template-id formation, mirroring how Carbon generics behave. For now,
only type template parameters are supported; non-type and template
template parameters produce a TODO error.
Don't attempt to defer overload resolution by creating a
`CppOverloadSet`; this was incorrect as we weren't saving the complete
clang::OverloadCandidateSet, resulting in template candidates not being
found. Moreover, saving the overload candidate set would be expensive,
as the representation is surprisingly large, and is unnecessary since
we're about to build a call.
In passing, improve the diagnostics for overload resolution failure to
use Clang's operator overload resolution messages rather than its call
overload resolution messages.
This fixes calls to templated operator overloads, which is the final
piece needed for us to successfully compile an iostream-based "Hello
world" program.

Instead of calling `PerformCppOverloadResolution()` and use the complex
return value to call `PerformCallToFunction()`, we call
`PerformCallToCppFunction()` which will call both
`PerformCppOverloadResolution()` and `PerformCallToFunction()`.
Followup of #6112.
Part of #5995.
