/**

* @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 argument deduction for class templates (C++17)
