Insert into this map a newly‐created `value_type` object, constructed by forwarding `get_allocator()` (if required) and the specified (variable number of) `args` to the corresponding constructor of `value_type`, if a key equivalent to such a value does not already exist in this map; otherwise, this method has no effect (other than possibly creating a temporary `value_type` object). Return an iterator referring to the (possibly newly created and inserted) object in this map whose key is equivalent to that of an object constructed from `args`. The average and worst case complexity of this operation is not affected by the specified `hint`. This method requires that the (template parameter) types `KEY` and `VALUE` both be `emplace‐constructible` from `args` (see {Requirements on `value_type`}). The behavior is undefined unless `hint` is an iterator in the range `[begin() .. end()]` (both endpoints included). Note that `hint` is ignored (other than possibly asserting its validity in some build modes).
