Export of internal Abseil changes

Clarify comments about API differences from std::{set,map} in btree headers.

We note that the most important API differences are mentioned in the next paragraph and that other API differences are minor. An example of another minor API difference is the note about std::launder in the comment for `extract`.

Motivation: readers shouldn't feel like they need to read the entire header file to understand why b-tree containers are not "drop-in replacements" for STL containers.

Remove the test for absl::base_internal::NominalCPUFrequency() from OSS code

This is an internal-only function that should never by called by OSS code.
By its nature fails on unsupported platforms.
Google code has tests for this function on supported internal platforms.

Fixes #1053

To avoid triggering -Wmissing-variable-declarations warnings, ABSL_FLAG now
declares the Flag before defining it.
