GCC 15 has added builtins for various C++ type traits that Clang
already had. Since __has_builtin(...) now finds these, the #if
branches previously only used for Clang are now used for GCC 15.
However, GCC 15 requires that these builtins only be used in type
aliases, not in template aliases.

For now, just don't use the __has_builtin(...) branches under newer
GCC versions, so both 14 and 15 work during the transition. This
can be cleaned up later to use all the GCC 15 builtins available.

Fixed: #137704
Fixed: #117319

These changes follow the model of llvm#81386 where a previous GCC
version added builtins for __remove_cv and __remove_cvref.

#if __has_builtin(__add_lvalue_reference) && !defined(_LIBCPP_COMPILER_GCC)

We usually don't test the version since we support only one and these builtins are new anyways, so there isn't much use to check the version.

Did this pass all checks before it was merged? I see formatting errors?
