252    * The pointer type used with the containers doesn't have to be this
253    * class, but it must support the implicit conversions, pointer
254    * arithmetic, comparison operators, etc. that are supported by this
255    * class, and avoid raising compile-time ambiguities.  Because
256    * creating a working pointer can be challenging, this pointer
257    * template was designed to wrapper an easier storage policy type,
258    * so that it becomes reusable for creating other pointer types.
259    *
260    * A key point of this class is also that it allows container
261    * writers to 'assume' Allocator::pointer is a typedef for a normal
262    * pointer.  This class supports most of the conventions of a true
263    * pointer, and can, for instance handle implicit conversion to
264    * const and base class pointer types.  The only impositions on
265    * container writers to support extended pointers are: 1) use the
266    * Allocator::pointer typedef appropriately for pointer types.  2)
267    * if you need pointer casting, use the __pointer_cast<> functions
268    * from ext/cast.h.  This allows pointer cast operations to be
269    * overloaded as necessary by custom pointers.
270    *
271    * Note: The const qualifier works with this pointer adapter as
272    * follows:
273    *
274    * _Tp*             == _Pointer_adapter<_Std_pointer_impl<_Tp> >;

276    * _Tp* const       == const _Pointer_adapter<_Std_pointer_impl<_Tp> >;
