provide an argument forwarding construct method in object_pool

[octopus-prime]

Given an actual compiler there should be a construct method in object_pool like

template<typename... Args>
element_type * construct(Args&&... args);

See https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/shared_ptr/make_shared

Pull requests with unit tests are welcome. :)

You still want to support C++03?
With C++11 the construct boiler-plate could be replaced by ONE method!

What kind of test do you mean? Something like

struct foo
{
	int i;
	double d;
	std::string s;
	foo* f;
};

void test_construct()
{
	boost::object_pool<foo> pool;
	auto element = pool.construct(1, 3.14, "bar", nullptr);
	BOOST_TEST_EQ(element->i, 1);
	BOOST_TEST_EQ(element->d, 3.14);
	BOOST_TEST_EQ(element->s, "bar");
	BOOST_TEST_EQ(element->f, nullptr);
}

Boost.Pool supports C++03 at this time, yes.

@jeking3 Can you have a look at my pull request to solve this issue? Thanks.
