Update coding standards for constexpr if statements; NFC

We currently suggest that users not use an else clause after a return
statement in a prior if branch. e.g.,

if (foo)
  return 1;
else // Should remove this else clause
  return 10;

however, this suggestion is incorrect for a constexpr if statement
because one of the two branches will be a discarded statement and thus
can impact template instantiation behavior. This updates the coding
standard to make it clear that it's okay to have a return after an else
in a constexpr if statement.

I think this is an NFC change to the intent of the rule, which is why
I've not started an RFC for the changes.
