Return an object that can appear on the left‐hand side of an assignment from `TYPE`. When a value is assigned to the returned value, invoke the functor or function indicated at construction supplying the assigned value as the parameter. This function is non‐`const` in accordance with the input iterator requirements, even though `*this` is not modified. Note that if `FUNCTION` is a function pointer type and a valid function pointer was not supplied at construction, then the behavior when assigning to a dereferenced iterator will be undefined.
