Automated g4 rollback of changelist 244998488.

*** Reason for rollback ***

I'm seeing test failures, rolling this back.

*** Original change description ***

BEGIN_PUBLIC

The default constructor for optional<T> is filling dummy_ with zeros (see https://godbolt.org/z/IVea7X for a reduced example), which has a performance impact for large Ts. This comes from the gcc6 bugfix that made dummy as big as T. Because constexpr constructors are required to initialize all members of a struct, we cannot prevent this in a standard-compliant way as soon as dummy has any members (note that clang will happily accept adding a `constexpr dummy_type() {}` constructor...

Because constexpr constructors are required to initialize all members of a struct, we cannot prevent this in a standard-compliant way as soon as dummy has any members (note that clang will happily accept adding a `constexpr dummy_type() {}` constructor to dummy_type to prevent zero-initialization, but this is UB AFAICT).

This all stems from the fact that we're constructing an object by using placement new on dummy_. The solution I'm using here is to do the placement new on the actual data_. This creates a new issue in when T is volatile, because we can no longer use `&data_` to do the placement new. The solution I'm using here is to make data_ a non-const and non-volatile T, and only provide fully possibly qualified access through `reference()` accessors. I think this correctly prevents UB.
