I got this testcase:

   auto f() -> std::optional<std::string>;
   for (char c : f().value()) { }

which has a dangling reference: std::optional<T>::value returns
a reference to the contained value, but here it's the f() temporary.
We warn, which is great, but only with -Wsystem-headers, because
the function comes from a system header and warning_enabled_at used
in do_warn_dangling_reference checks diagnostic_report_warnings_p,
which in this case returned false so we didn't warn.

Fixed as below.  I could also override dc_warn_system_headers so that
the warning is enabled in system headers always.  With that, I found one
issue in libstdc++:

libstdc++-v3/include/bits/fs_path.h:1265:15: warning: possibly dangling 
reference to a temporary [-Wdangling-reference]
  1265 |         auto& __last = *--end();
       |               ^~~~~~

which looks like a true positive as well.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, ok for trunk?

gcc/cp/ChangeLog:

        * call.cc (maybe_warn_dangling_reference): Enable the warning in
        system headers if the decl isn't in a system header.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

        * g++.dg/warn/Wdangling-reference4.C: New test.

Hmm, this is OK, but maybe we want a warning_enabled_at_ignore_system_header?
