Richard Smith 197cae22f1 Use consistent pattern to generate constrained overload sets. (#7679)
Follow the pattern used by eval_inst.h's `EvalConstantInst` to generate
declarations of an overload set that handles some but not all typed inst
classes. The pattern is:

* A template computes the signature to use for a particular overload,
producing a fallback `() -> void` signature for overloads that should
not exist.
* The `.def` file is used to generate a declaration per instruction
kind, whose signature is generated by the template.
* The `() -> void` signature that all the "should not exist" cases
generate is explicitly deleted.

This avoids the redundancy of manually declaring all the overloads, as
we did for `PerformAction`, and is less error-prone as it both catches
signature errors and definitions of overloads that are dead code and
should not exist, as it did for the `FacetAccessType` overload of
`LowerInst`.
