std::basic_string takes three template parameters:
1. CharT
2. Traits
3. Allocator
The Traits parameter was causing issues, as it requires a type which
exposes certain things, e.g. `Traits::value_type`.
We have a few options to resolve this:
1. Remove this parameter, as we do for allocators
Cons: removing a template parameter doesn't work if other
parameters appear after it
2. Stub this parameter, as we do for hashers/comparators
Cons: we need to hardcode an implementation that satisfies the
`Traits::value_type` requirements
3. Leave the parameter as-is
Cons: will not work if a non-standard Traits is used
By using the real implementation of this Traits parameter
(normally `std::char_traits<CharT>`), we get one that we know will
work as long as it is defined in a stdlib header.
Option 3 is what we use in this patch. Instead of adding more
configuration options to the container TOML file format (e.g.
`params_to_keep = [1]`), we add `std::char_traits` as a dummy
container type. Now, whenever `std::char_traits` appears, it will be
left as-is, i.e. not removed, replaced or reverse-engineered.
This is the same approach previously used for Thrift's isset_bitset.
