[libsigc++2/variadic_mem_fun2] limit_reference.h.m4: Make *_limit_reference template aliases of a limit_reference_base.



commit 0c5bdee697dd005d9357e0ab4ff641f4eb92878e
Author: Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>
Date:   Fri Mar 4 14:43:49 2016 +0100

    limit_reference.h.m4: Make *_limit_reference template aliases of a limit_reference_base.
    
    And have just one visitor specialization, using the base class.
    As for *_mem_functor. This avoids the repetition.
