Description
### Is this a duplicate?
- [X] I confirmed there appear to be no [duplicate issues](https://github.com/NVIDIA/cccl/issues) for this bug and that I agree to the [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md)
### Type of Bug
Compile-time Error
### Component
Thrust
### Describe the bug
See reproducer. This works on other platforms and on MSVC 2022, but 2017 and 2019 fire the static assert.
I tried messing with the implementation a little, but no luck finding an alternative that MSVC was happy with.
Some tests in `thrust/testing/memory.cu` and `thrust/testing/allocator.cu` will be disabled until this can be fixed. Search for this issue number to find them.
### How to Reproduce
```
#include
struct foo { void baz(); };
__THRUST_DEFINE_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION(has_baz, baz)
static_assert(has_baz::value, "Cannot detect member.");
```
```
> cl.exe -DTHRUST_DEVICE_SYSTEM=THRUST_DEVICE_SYSTEM_CPP -IC:\cccl\thrust\ -IC:\cccl\cub\ -IC:\cccl\libcudacxx\include\ -c ..\..\test.cpp
..\..\test.cpp(16): error C2338: Cannot detect member.
```
### Tasks
- [ ] Find a new implementation for the "has member function" utility that work.
- [ ] Re-enable tests in memory.cu (search for this issue number, 1731)
- [ ] Re-enable tests in allocator.cu (search for this issue number, 1731)
