I have been able to treat the references better. I can now use the
real type provided to the trait without removing the reference
qualifier.
The counterpart is that, for example,
can_call_addition_assignment<int>::value is false which may seem
strange but:
- can_call_addition_assignment<int&>::value is true
- can_call_addition_assignment<int&, int>::value is true

Same for can_call_pre_increment<int> which is false but
can_call_pre_increment<int&> is true.

This is of course logical and if nobody disagrees, this is what I will
apply (the documentation will explain this in details as requested).
