Bug #22103: Constant-folded /o regexp crashes with dupstring of a Regexp
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/22103#change-117555

----------------------------------------
A `/o` (once) regexp whose interpolation folds to a constant crashes at runtime:

```ruby
def m; /#{"a"}/o; end
m   #=> [BUG] heap_idx_for_size: allocation size too large
```

A plain `/#{"a"}/` (no `/o`) is fine.
