Function template for deallocation of temporary storage

#include <memory>

namespace std {
  template <class T>
  void return_temporary_buffer(T* ptr);
}

Specializations of the return_temporary_buffer() function template deallocate temporary storage previously allocated by a call to the matching specialization of get_temporary_buffer().

The detsructors of any objects stored in the temporary storage region are not invoked as a result of the call. The caller is responsible for destroying the objects prior to making the call.

The function is thread-safe but must be called from the same thread as the one that made the call to the matching specialization of get_temporary_buffer() to obtain the storage.
