Pull request description:

  This improves our Span class by making it closer to the C++20 `std::span` one:
  * ~~Support conversion between compatible Spans (e.g. `Span<char>` to `Span<const char>`).~~ (done in #18591)
  * Make the size type `std::size_t` rather than `std::ptrdiff_t` (the C++20 one underwent the same change).
  * Support construction of Spans directly from arrays, `std::string`s, `std::array`s, `std::vector`s, `prevector`s, ... (for all but arrays, this only works for const containers to prevent surprises).

  And then make use of those improvements in various call sites.

  I realize the template magic used looks scary, but it's only needed to make overload resultion make the right choices. Note that the operations done on values are all extremely simple: no casts, explicit conversions, or warning-silencing constructions. That should hopefully make it simpler to review.
