22.8 Expected objects [expected]
22.8.1 General [expected.general]
Subclause [expected] describes the class template expected that represents expected objects.
An expected<T, E> object holds an object of type T or an object of type E and manages the lifetime of the contained objects.

Any object of type expected<T, E> either contains a value of type T or a value of type E nested within ([intro.object]) it.
Member has_val indicates whether the expected<T, E> object contains an object of type T.
A type T is a valid value type for expected, if remove_cv_t is void or a complete non-array object type that is not in_place_t,unexpect_t, or a specialization of unexpected.
A program which instantiates class template expected<T, E> with an argument T that is not a valid value type for expected is ill-formed.
A program that instantiates the definition of the template expected<T, E> with a type for the E parameter that is not a valid template argument for unexpected is ill-formed.
When T is not cv void, it shall meet the Cpp17Destructible requirements (Table 35).
E shall meet the Cpp17Destructible requirements.

Any object of type expected<T, E> either represents a value of type T, or contains a value of type E nested within ([intro.object]) it.
Member has_val indicates whether the expected<T, E> object represents a value of type T.
A program that instantiates the definition of the template expected<T, E> with a type for the E parameter that is not a valid template argument for unexpected is ill-formed.
E shall meet the requirements ofCpp17Destructible (Table 35).
