Strengthen C++20 SC accesses

`@SabrinaJewson` noted in #2301 that Miri could produce behaviours forbidden under C++20 even without SC fences. Due to the added coherence-ordered before relationship which is created from read from and read before, plus the fact that coherence-ordered before between SC operations must be consistent with the Global Total Order S, in C++20 if there's an SC load that reads from any store, then a later SC load cannot read before that store. This PR adds this restriction

//! A modification is made to the paper's model to partially address C++20 changes.
