  35 /* This class attempts to be a compatible subset of std::optional,
  36    which is slated to be available in C++17.  This class optionally
  37    holds an object of some type -- by default it is constructed not
  38    holding an object, but later the object can be "emplaced".  This is
  39    similar to using std::unique_ptr, but in-object allocation is
  40    guaranteed.
  41
  42    Unlike std::optional, we currently only support copy/move
  43    construction/assignment of an optional<T> from either exactly
  44    optional<T> or T.  I.e., we don't support copy/move
  45    construction/assignment from optional<U> or U, when U is a type
  46    convertible to T.  Making that work depending on the definitions of
  47    T and U is somewhat complicated, and currently the users of this
  48    class don't need it.  */
