Discussion:
If we are supporting stateful deleters, we need an overload for
reset that
takes a deleter as well.
void reset(pointer p, deleter_type d);
We probably need two overloads to support move-only deleters, and this sounds uncomfortably like the two constructors I have been ignoring for now...

Howard comments that we have the functionality via move-assigment.
Move to Open.

Mark as NAD Future.
[2017-02 in Kona, LEWG recommends NAD]
Pointer-accepting overloads of reset() are discouraged — the same
functionality is available via move-assignment and that is more idiomatic.
