[section:non_standard_memset_initialization Non-standard value initialization using `std::memset`]
[*Boost.Container] uses `std::memset` with a zero value to initialize some types as in most platforms this
initialization yields to the desired value initialization with improved performance.
Following the C11 standard, [*Boost.Container] assumes that ['for any integer type,
the object representation where all the bits are zero shall be a representation of the value
zero in that type]. Since `_Bool`/`wchar_t`/`char16_t`/`char32_t` are also integer types in C, it considers
all C++ integral types as initializable via `std::memset`.
By default, [*Boost.Container] also considers floating point types to be initializable using `std::memset`.
Most platforms are compatible with this initialization, but in case this initialization is not desirable the
user can `#define BOOST_CONTAINER_MEMZEROED_FLOATING_POINT_IS_NOT_ZERO` before including library headers.
By default, it also considers pointer types (pointer and pointer to function types, excluding
member object and member function pointers) to be initializable using `std::memset`.
Most platforms are compatible with this initialization, but in case this initialization is not desired the
user can `#define BOOST_CONTAINER_MEMZEROED_POINTER_IS_NOT_ZERO` before including library headers.
If neither `BOOST_CONTAINER_MEMZEROED_FLOATING_POINT_IS_NOT_ZERO` nor
`BOOST_CONTAINER_MEMZEROED_POINTER_IS_NOT_ZERO` is defined [*Boost.Container] also considers POD
types to be value initializable via `std::memset` with value zero.
