missed optimization for static constexpr field without definition #17986

Extended Description

Consider the code in attachment. clang only properly optimizes the function f()' when it has a definition for the constexpr fieldfoo' in the same compilation unit.

Note that I'm not complaining that I have to provide a definition for field `foo'. But my choice for the compilation unit for this definition should not affect performance?

gcc emits the optimal code for this, EDG rejects because of the 'static constexpr' with "a member of type "Literal" cannot have an in-class initializer".
