/**
* @file llmake.h
* @author Nat Goodspeed
* @date 2015-12-18
* @brief Generic llmake<Template>(arg) function to instantiate
* Template<decltype(arg)>(arg).
*
* Many of our class templates have an accompanying helper function to
* make an instance with arguments of arbitrary type. llmake()
* eliminates the need to declare a new helper function for every such
* class template.
*
* also relevant:
*
* Template parameter deduction for constructors
* http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2015/p0091r0.html
*
* https://github.com/viboes/std-make
*
* but obviously we're not there yet.

* Usage: llmake<SomeTemplate>(arg)
*
* Deduces the type T of 'arg' and returns an instance of SomeTemplate<T>
* initialized with 'arg'. Assumes a constructor accepting T (by value,
