Assign to this list, in order, the sequence of values in the specified `values` initializer list. This method requires that the (template parameter) type `VALUE` be `copy‐assignable` and `copy‐insertable` into this list. Note that, to the extent possible, existing elements of this list are copy‐assigned to, to minimize the number of nodes that need to be copy‐inserted or erased.
