Introduced as remedy for a long standing sloppiness:
Using a `char[]` together with `reinterpret_cast` in storage management helpers
bears danger of placing objects with wrong alignment; moreover, there are increasing
risks that modern code optimisers miss the ''backdoor access'' and might apply too
aggressive rewritings.
With C++17, there is a standard conformant way to express such a usage scheme.
* `lib::UninitialisedStorage` can now be used in a situation (e.g. as in `ExtentFamily`)
where a complete block of storage is allocated once and then subsequently used
to plant objects one by one
* moreover, I went over the code base and adapted the most relevant usages of
''placement-new into buffer'' to also include the `std::launder()` marker
