`defaultConstruct` overloads

== Synopses

Declared in `<bslalg_scalarprimitives.h>`

Build a default‐initialized object of the parameterized `TARGET_TYPE` in the uninitialized memory at the specified `address`, as if by using the `TARGET_TYPE` default constructor. If the specified `allocator` is based on `bslma::Allocator` and `TARGET_TYPE` takes an allocator constructor argument, then `allocator` is passed to the default constructor. If the constructor throws, the `address` is left in an uninitialized state. Note that this operation may bypass the constructor and simply fill memory with 0 if `TARGET_TYPE` has the trivial default constructor trait and does not use `bslma::Allocator`.

Same as the preceding overload, ignoring `allocator`.
