PR45879: Fix assert when constant evaluating union assignment.

Consider the form of the first operand of a class assignment not the
second operand when implicitly starting the lifetimes of union members.
Also add a missing check that the assignment call actually came from a
syntactic assignment, not from a direct call to `operator=`.
