#34467: `Cycle` tag do not work with variables defined in `with`-tag.

Here is the example:

{{{
{# context is simple dict with one key {A=["1", "2", "3"]} #}

{% with example_defined_variable="123" %}

{% for item in A %}

Current item: {{ item }}

Current cycle item: {% cycle example_defined_variable %}

{% endfor %}

Visible page.

{% endwith %}
}}}

As you can see I render this template using django 4.0.1 and context
containing 1 key "**A**" with the value of **["1", "2", "3"]** (that is
the list of strings).
Then I try to print the items of the list along with predefined value (see
**with**-tag).
The result must be like:

{{{
Current item: 1
Current cycle item: 123
Current item: 2
Current cycle item: 123
Current item: 3
Current cycle item: 123
Visible page.
}}}

But instead Im getting:

No named cycles in template. 'example_defined_variable' is not defined

That means that cycle-tag do not recognize **example_defined_variable** as
defined variable, BUT
on the
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/templates/builtins/#cycle
documentation] page there is the note that you CAN use defined variables
in cycle-tag.
