24162e64040e89f174531fa78fc0ff43c3a67da4 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>:

Make ABSL_RETIRED_FLAG behave consistently with ABSL_FLAG.

Before the change:
ABSL_RETIRED_FLAG does not compile when there are competing ctors in the type, even when ABSL_FLAG does.

After the change:
ABSL_RETIRED_FLAG compiles when ABSL_FLAG does.
