Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Revert "Revert "Algorithms: Simplify Utils::transform
 implementation"""

This reverts commit defb18aef413f0c9c99f957ebdd3bf1f8e2134e8.
This reverts commit 602f8e72be21f9d1c68375a9e877b2e8524916cf.

The refactoring of transform does not compile with
MSVC2015 Update 2. Retry when we can upgrade to update 3.
