Correct the documented make_xxx factory signatures and examples (#1530)
* Corrected the documented make_xxx factory signatures and examples

The Make template sections across the container documentation had
drifted from the implementations, largely through copy-paste:

- map.md, multimap.md and flat-multimap.md all documented
  make_flat_map; multiset.md documented make_set; flat-multiset.md
  documented make_flat_set; unordered-multimap.md documented
  make_unordered_map. Names and examples now match each container.
- Every signature omitted the C++11-required trailing return type
  despite the sections being labelled C++11 and above; several also
  used a parameter name (TValues) that did not match any template
  parameter, and the unordered map headers were missing a comma.
- forward-list.md documented a make_array-style signature with an
  explicit element type; the real function deduces the element type as
  the common type of the arguments, as documented for make_list.
- The flat_set/flat_multiset template headers were missing the
  variadic parameter pack, and their examples passed a braced list to
  a variadic function, which does not compile; set.md used TKeyCompare
  where the implementation uses TCompare.
- deque.md and the reference container docs were missing code fences.
- Updated the four reference_flat_* function.  However these functions
  cannot be instantiated at all (the reference containers have no
  initializer_list constructor, since one would dangle by design), so
  the documented examples have never compiled.

Every remaining documented example verified to compile with clang 22
(C++17) against the current headers.

* Fixed C++17-only syntax in factory examples and flagged the non-compilable ones

Review feedback on the make_xxx documentation examples:

- All the map-family factory examples are labelled C++11 and above but
  constructed their pairs with class template argument deduction
  (etl::pair{0, 1}), which requires C++17. The pairs in the make_flat_map,
  make_flat_multimap, make_map, make_multimap, make_unordered_map,
  make_unordered_multimap, make_reference_flat_map and
  make_reference_flat_multimap examples now name their template arguments
  explicitly. The template deduction guide examples are unchanged, as
  those sections are labelled C++17 and above. Verified with clang 22 in
  C++14 mode, which, like C++11, has no deduction guides.

- The four make_reference_flat_* examples are now preceded by a warning
  callout stating that they do not currently compile: the functions
  cannot be instantiated because the reference containers have no
  initializer_list constructor. The examples themselves are retained,
  rewritten to pass named lvalues rather than temporaries, since the
  reference containers store references to external objects and the
  temporaries would dangle even if the functions compiled. The defect
  is being reported separately.

Changed make_list to take its arguments by forwarding reference (#1528)
make_list was the only make_xxx container factory taking its argument
pack by value rather than by forwarding reference, costing an extra
move per lvalue argument: each lvalue was copy-constructed into the
parameter and then moved into the initializer_list backing array,
where the forwarding-reference signature copies it there directly.
Rvalue prvalue arguments count the same either way in practice, as
copy elision constructs them directly into the by-value parameter.

Change the pack to T&&..., matching make_vector, make_forward_list and
make_indirect_vector. The deduced reference types decay through
common_type, so the element type deduction is unchanged.

Adds tests for const/non-const lvalues of the element type (guarding
against the forward<T> defect fixed for make_array and make_deque),
mixed-type common_type deduction, and an instrumented type counting
copy/move constructions, which fails with the by-value signature (one
extra move per lvalue argument) and passes with the fix.

Also corrects the make_list documentation, which described a
make_array-style signature with an explicit element type parameter
that never matched the implementation.

Verified with clang 22 (C++17): all 93 list tests pass; C++14/20
syntax checks pass.

Note: mixed-type lvalue arguments are affected by a separate
pre-existing defect in etl::common_type (its two-type specialization
recurses with decay<T2> twice instead of decay<T1>, decay<T2>), which
already affects the other common_type-based factories and is being
fixed separately.
