Review Catch2 devel through 08092139210881f01a34e60c5f2fd6afa0ea4024,
the commit of 3.16.1, and apply the eleven changes since the last
reviewed revision in upstream order:

  d7683484  better message when a reporter cannot be initialized
  ea5020f0  custom argument validation in every first-party reporter
  aa01559e  throwing-reporter test also throws in assertionEnded
  45cd3987  noexcept on handleUnexpectedInflightException
  6adbd539  MSVC optimizations enabled again after the benchmark headers
  e87f2882  no quadratic scaling for NTTP test registration
  73d546cd  REQUIRE expands its arguments fewer times under GCC and Clang
  b710039a  decomposer operators as plain functions
  f899467b  type-erased streaming of reconstructed expressions
  8f0e70ca  retired macos-14 runner dropped
  08092139  version 3.16.1 and its release notes

All of them applied to the sources without a conflict. The amalgamated
distribution under extras/ conflicted because it is generated; it is
generated again from the sources of this repository, which also brings
it up to date with fork changes it had not picked up: the list-based
stream pool, the Clang diagnostic boundary and the cassert include.

No file under src/Progmasoft changes. The fork-owned texts that name
the engine version say 3.16.1, and docs/upstream-status.md records the
review. Upstream files keep their names, licenses and compiler options.

Built with Clang 22 on Windows and tested: 148 of 149 tests pass. The
one that fails, Reporters::CrashInJunitReporter, fails the same way on
devel without this change with that compiler.

The underlying benchmarking machinery is templated, so that it can use
different clock implementations (either for testing, or to support user
with platform-specific clocks). However, 99.99% of all users interact
with it using the `BENCHMARK` macro, which means that they use it with
`std::chrono::steady_clock`.

By adding outlined implementation of benchmarking helpers specialized
onto `std::chrono::steady_clock`, we save some amount of time per every
TU that uses benchmarks.

The goal is to do the equivalent of clobbering memory, which forces
the compiler to keep side effects that are external to the benchmarked
function, while allowing it to optimize inside the benchmarked function.

E.g. this cannot be optimized away:
```cpp
BENCHMARK("foo") {
    global_count += 1;
};
```

while this can:
```cpp
BENCHMARK("bar") {
    size_t local_count = 0;
    for (size_t i = 0; i < 100; ++i) {
        local_count += 1;
    }
};
```

Bad handling of `TestFailureException` when translating unexpected
exceptions inside assertion macros led to the unexpected exceptions
handling erroring out through throwing the same exception again.

This was then backstopped by the machinery for handling uncaught
exceptions from assertions, which is normally used by the
`CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE` machinery, where we assume that it can
only be invoked because the assertion macros are not configured to
catch assertions.

Closes #1292
