Description

When classes are defined inside template aliases, they are currently recovered as non templated classes, as if they were defined in the template alias' context. However, these classes let escape any references to the template parameters.

Consider this example:

template <class T> using A = struct B {
  template <class> void f() requires (T()); // BAD: T aliases f's unnamed template parameter.
};
template void B::f<void>();

Produces:

test.cc:1:37: error: 'B' cannot be defined in a type alias template
    1 | template <class T> using A = struct B {
      |                                     ^
test.cc:2:39: error: atomic constraint must be of type 'bool' (found 'void')
    2 |   template <class> void f() requires (T());

This can easily lead to crashes as well:

template <class T> using A = struct B {
  using C = T;
};
template <class> void f() requires (B::C());
template void f<void>();

asserts in the constexpr evaluator:

Assertion failed: (!isValueDependent() && "Expression evaluator can't be called on a dependent expression."), function EvaluateAsConstantExpr, file ExprConstant.cpp, line 15953.

Probably a good strategy to fix this issue is to mark the alias' template parameters as invalid, and make sure their resulting type is something sensible for error recovery.
