//
// These are the differences between the specification and the implementation:
// - The constructor and emplace method using initializer_list are not
//   implemented because 'initializer_list' is banned from Chromium.
// - Constructors do not use 'constexpr' as it is a C++14 extension.
// - 'constexpr' might be missing in some places for reasons specified locally.
// - No exceptions are thrown, because they are banned from Chromium.
// - All the non-members are in the 'base' namespace instead of 'std'.
