Fixtures are not rebuilt when param changes for a fixture they depend on, if the dependency is via getfixturevalue #14103

Description

Minimal reproducer:

import pytest

@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def foo(request):
    return request.param

@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def bar(request):
    return request.getfixturevalue("foo")

@pytest.mark.parametrize("foo", [1], indirect=True)
def test_first(foo, bar):
    assert bar == 1

@pytest.mark.parametrize("foo", [2], indirect=True)
def test_second(foo, bar):
    assert bar == 2

test_second fails, because bar == 1.

The reason is that pytest currently only tracks static dependencies via argnames for the purposes of resetting dependent fixtures.
