Richard Smith 093d5072db Add support for using C++ user-defined conversions via interop (#6646)
When performing an implicit conversion to or from a C++ class type, look
for a C++ implicit conversion, and if that conversion involves a
function call (to a constructor or conversion function), call that
function to perform the conversion.

Note that this is just a first pass at supporting implicit conversions.
There are a lot of other things that can happen in a C++ implicit
conversion, such as aggregate initialization or `std::initializer_list`
initialization that aren't handled here. In addition, we intentionally
leave all standard conversions to Carbon to perform, so that we will
reject conversions such as `i32 -> unsigned` that C++ would select but
Carbon considers to be invalid.

Also support `as` conversions. These are treated analogously, but
perform direct-initialization instead of copy-initialization, so they
also find `explicit` constructors and conversion functions.

In order to give good diagnostics, also track the original C++ source
location for imported C++ functions on the imported version of the
function.
