Just triple checking, `Evaluate` is the "slow path" (i.e. 
`VarDecl::evaluateValue`, `Expr::EvaluateAsLValue`, and 
`Expr::EvaluateAsRValue`?

So the slow path gets it wrong? But prior to this patch, that's was used first 
before ConstExprEmitter?  (Maybe I should add more comments about fast vs slow 
path)

I think I would; the last test case currently failing is 
clang/test/CodeGenCXX/atomicinit.cpp:
```
struct X {
  constexpr X(int n) : n(n) {}
  short n;
  char c = 6;
};

struct Y {
  _Atomic(X) a;
  _Atomic(int) b;
};
Y y = { X(4), 5 };
```
The AST for `y` looks like:
```
`-VarDecl 0x562bba0cad00 <line:11:1, col:17> col:3 y 'Y':'Y' cinit
  `-ExprWithCleanups 0x562bba0e9f28 <col:7, col:17> 'Y':'Y'
    `-InitListExpr 0x562bba0e9c20 <col:7, col:17> 'Y':'Y'
      |-ImplicitCastExpr 0x562bba0e9ef8 <col:9, col:12> '_Atomic(X)' 
<NonAtomicToAtomic>
      | `-ImplicitCastExpr 0x562bba0e9ee0 <col:9, col:12> 'X':'X' 
<ConstructorConversion>
      |   `-CXXConstructExpr 0x562bba0e9eb0 <col:9, col:12> 'X':'X' 'void (X 
&&) noexcept' elidable
      |     `-MaterializeTemporaryExpr 0x562bba0e9c70 <col:9, col:12> 'X':'X' 
xvalue
      |       `-CXXFunctionalCastExpr 0x562bba0e9b88 <col:9, col:12> 'X':'X' 
functional cast to X <ConstructorConversion>
      |         `-CXXConstructExpr 0x562bba0e9a10 <col:9, col:12> 'X':'X' 'void 
(int)'
      |           `-IntegerLiteral 0x562bba0cadc0 <col:11> 'int' 4
      `-ImplicitCastExpr 0x562bba0e9f10 <col:15> '_Atomic(int)' 
<NonAtomicToAtomic>
        `-IntegerLiteral 0x562bba0e9bb0 <col:15> 'int' 5
```
so we'd need to peek through the casts to find that there was a 
`MaterializeTemporaryExpr` in there, then bail?
