    * Utility meta-function that maps a sequence of any types to the type void
    * \note The idea is:
    *    template <typename ...>
    *    using void_t = void;
    *
    * Until CWG 1558 (a C++14 defect), unused parameters in alias templates were not
    * guaranteed to ensure SFINAE and could be ignored, so earlier compilers require
    * a more complex definition of void_t, such as the following implementation
    * https://en.cppreference.com
