gmock-actions: simplify Return and add better documentation.
Better document requirements, API decisions, and historical accidents. Make an implicit conversion easier and in a more appropriate place, and ease the burden of some assertions in the conversion operator. Stop using the legacy ActionInterface style for defining the action. PiperOrigin-RevId: 447894892 Change-Id: I179e23ec2abdd9bf05c204ab18dbb492f1372e8e

+ // returned the value was from const R&.
+ //
+ // 2. Google changelist 6490411 changed ActionInterface::Perform to
+ // be non-const, citing the fact that an action can have side
+ // effects and be stateful. Impl::Perform was updated like all
+ // other actions, probably without consideration of the fact

+ // made the Action<U()> conversion operator eagerly convert the R value to
+ // U, but without keeping the R alive. This broke the use case discussed
+ // in the documentation for Return, making reference-like types such as
+ // std::string_view not safe to use as U where the input type R is a
+ // value-like type such as std::string.
+ //
+ // The example the commit gave was not very clear, nor was the issue
+ // thread (https://github.com/google/googlemock/issues/86), but it seems
+ // the worry was about reference-like input types R that flatten to a
+ // value-like type U when being implicitly converted. An example of this
+ // is std::vector<bool>::reference, which is often a proxy type with an
+ // reference to the underlying vector:

+ // // to the supplied script.
