Add absl::FunctionRef, a type analogous to the proposed C++23 std::function_ref.

Like std::function, FunctionRef can be used to type-erase any callable (invokable) object.  However, FunctionRef works by reference: it does not store a copy of the type-erased object.  If the wrapped object is destroyed before the FunctionRef, the reference becomes dangling.

FunctionRef relates to std::function in much the same way that string_view relates to std::string.

Because of these limitations, FunctionRef is best used only as a function argument type, and only where the function will be invoked immediately (rather than saved for later use).  When `const std::function<...>&` is used in this way, `absl::FunctionRef<...>` is a better-performing replacement.

40be82bd2b34670b5458c0a72a0475086153c2d6 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>:

Added comments to SimpleAtof()/SimpleAtod() that clarify that they
always use the "C" locale, unlike the standard functions strtod()
and strtof() referenced now in the comments.

Move the hex conversion table used by escaping.cc into numbers.h so
that other parts of Abseil can more efficiently access it.

+// This header file defines the `absl::FunctionRef` type for holding a
+// non-owning reference to an object of any invocable type. This function
+// reference is typically most useful as a type-erased argument type for
+// accepting function types that neither take ownership nor copy the type; using
+// the reference type in this case avoids a copy and an allocation. Best
+// practices of other non-owning reference-like objects (such as
+// `absl::string_view`) apply here.
+//
+//  An `absl::FunctionRef` is similar in usage to a `std::function` but has the
+//  following differences:
+//
+//  * It doesn't own the underlying object.
+//  * It doesn't have a null or empty state.
+//  * It never performs deep copies or allocations.
+//  * It's much faster and cheaper to construct.
+//  * It's trivially copyable and destructable.
+//
+// Generally, `absl::FunctionRef` should not be used as a return value, data
+// member, or to initialize a `std::function`. Such usages will often lead to
+// problematic lifetime issues. Once you convert something to an
+// `absl::FunctionRef` you cannot make a deep copy later.
+//
+// This class is suitable for use wherever a "const std::function<>&"
+// would be used without making a copy. ForEach functions and other versions of
+// the visitor pattern are a good example of when this class should be used.
+//
+// This class is trivial to copy and should be passed by value.

+// An `absl::FunctionRef` is a lightweight wrapper to any invokable object with

+// reference to a `std::function`.
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//   // The following function takes a function callback by const reference
+//   bool Visitor(const std::function<void(my_proto&,

+//   // Assuming that the function is not stored or otherwise copied, it can be
+//   // replaced by an `absl::FunctionRef`:
+//   bool Visitor(absl::FunctionRef<void(my_proto&, absl::string_view)>
+//                  callback);
+//
+// Note: the assignment operator within an `absl::FunctionRef` is intentionally
+// deleted to prevent misuse; because the `absl::FunctionRef` does not own the
