Per the standard, the return type of a generators ranges iterator op*
should be the reference type rather than the yielded type.

The yielded type was used here by mistake.

libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

        * include/std/generator (generator::_Iterator::operator*): Fix
        return type.
        * testsuite/24_iterators/range_generators/iter_deref_return.cc:
        New test.
