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.
