Problem: - `ct_capacity_v<span<int>>` returns its capacity as the maximum value of `std::size_t`, which is wrong. Solution: - Make `ct_capacity_v` a compile-time error when called on a dynamic `stdx::span`. (Just like on a dynamic `std::span`). These things don't have compile-time capacities; they are dynamic.
