:mrdocs:

Destroy each instance of `TARGET_TYPE` in the array beginning at the specified `begin` address and ending immediately before the specified `end` address, using the specified `allocator`. Elide the use of the destructor entirely if (template parameter) `TARGET_TYPE` is bitwise copyable, i.e., in the overload where the last argument (used only for overload resolution) is of type `bsl::true_type`.
