Next, `const`-qualified tuples. The issue here is that we're stripping references from the input tuples, but not
`const`. As a result, we're trying to manipulate types such as `tuple<int> const` with Mp11 algorithms, and these
types do not fit the list concept. We just need to strip qualifiers as well, by defining the useful `remove_cv_ref`

Why does this work? `mp_product<F, L1<T1...>, L2<T2...>, ..., Ln<Tn...>>` returns `L1<F<U1, U2, ..., Un>, ...>`, where `Ui` traverse all
possible combinations of list values. Since in our case all `Li` are `std::variant`, the result will also be `std::variant`. (`mp_product_q` is

One more step remains. Suppose that, as above, we're passing two variants of type `std::variant<short, int, float>` and `F` is
