Update is_val_statically_known docs

* Add `Type Requirements` section, listing the allowed inputs, as requested by #121115
* Add `Pointers` subsection, explaining is_val_statically_known handles pointers.
* Add `Stability concerns` section, referring to other documentation relating to consistency in `const` functions.

+/// `T` must be either a `bool`, a `char`, a primitive numeric type (e.g. `f32`,
