We were saying 'auto parameter not permitted' in a place where 'auto' is in
fact permitted in C++20, but a class template placeholder is not.

gcc/cp/ChangeLog:

* decl.c (grokdeclarator): Improve diagnostic for
disallowed CTAD placeholder.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

* g++.dg/other/pr88187.C: Adjust expected error.
* g++.dg/cpp2a/class-deduction-abbrev1.C: New test.
