/**
 * Implementation of an hash set using open adressing with robin hood with backshift delete to resolve collisions.
 * 
 * The particularity of this hash set is that it remembers the order in which the elements were added and
 * provide a way to access the structure which stores these values through the 'values_container()' method. 
 * The used container is defined by ValueTypeContainer, by default a std::deque is used (grows faster) but
 * a std::vector may be used. In this case the set provides a 'data()' method which give a direct access 
 * to the memory used to store the values (which can be usefull to communicate with C API's).
 * 
 * The Key must be copy constructible and/or move constructible. To use `unordered_erase` it also must be swappable.
 * 
 * The behaviour of the hash set is undefinded if the destructor of Key throws an exception.
 * 
 * By default the maximum size of a set is limited to 2^32 - 1 values, if needed this can be changed through
 * the IndexType template parameter. Using an `uint64_t` will raise this limit to 2^64 - 1 values but each
 * bucket will use 16 bytes instead of 8 bytes in addition to the space needed to store the values.
 * 
 * Iterators invalidation:
 *  - clear, operator=, reserve, rehash: always invalidate the iterators (also invalidate end()).
 *  - insert, emplace, emplace_hint, operator[]: when a std::vector is used as ValueTypeContainer 
 *                                               and if size() < capacity(), only end(). 
 *                                               Otherwise all the iterators are invalidated if an insert occurs.
 *  - erase, unordered_erase: when a std::vector is used as ValueTypeContainer invalidate the iterator of 
 *                            the erased element and all the ones after the erased element (including end()). 
 *                            Otherwise all the iterators are invalidated if an erase occurs.
