Hi, 

When using at_put and at_put_grow you can provide a value which will be supplied to the constructor of each element. In other words, you can intialize each element through a copy constructor.

I suggest that we also provide a function equivalent where the function is provided a pointer to the memory to be initialized. This can be used for `NONCOPYABLE` classes, for example.

This is implemented using a SFINAE pattern because `nullptr` introduces ambiguity if you use static overload.

Currently running tier1-tier4.
