Thanks David. Arthur proposes:

    Attributes-friendness-storage-constness-virtualness-explicitness-
signedness-length-type Identifier.

static and inline are storage specifiers, so they go both before constexpr and 
we prefer "static inline" where both are permitted or required. I think this 
is a good suggestion to adopt.

Arthur doesn't conclude very well whether constinit comes all the way first 
(because it modifies how the initialisation happens) versus being placed where 
constexpr would be.
