Correct the documented make_xxx factory signatures and examples (#1530)
* Corrected the documented make_xxx factory signatures and examples

The Make template sections across the container documentation had
drifted from the implementations, largely through copy-paste:

- map.md, multimap.md and flat-multimap.md all documented
  make_flat_map; multiset.md documented make_set; flat-multiset.md
  documented make_flat_set; unordered-multimap.md documented
  make_unordered_map. Names and examples now match each container.
- Every signature omitted the C++11-required trailing return type
  despite the sections being labelled C++11 and above; several also
  used a parameter name (TValues) that did not match any template
  parameter, and the unordered map headers were missing a comma.
- forward-list.md documented a make_array-style signature with an
  explicit element type; the real function deduces the element type as
  the common type of the arguments, as documented for make_list.
- The flat_set/flat_multiset template headers were missing the
  variadic parameter pack, and their examples passed a braced list to
  a variadic function, which does not compile; set.md used TKeyCompare
  where the implementation uses TCompare.
- deque.md and the reference container docs were missing code fences.
- Updated the four reference_flat_* function.  However these functions
  cannot be instantiated at all (the reference containers have no
  initializer_list constructor, since one would dangle by design), so
  the documented examples have never compiled.

Every remaining documented example verified to compile with clang 22
(C++17) against the current headers.

* Fixed C++17-only syntax in factory examples and flagged the non-compilable ones

Review feedback on the make_xxx documentation examples:

- All the map-family factory examples are labelled C++11 and above but
  constructed their pairs with class template argument deduction
  (etl::pair{0, 1}), which requires C++17. The pairs in the make_flat_map,
  make_flat_multimap, make_map, make_multimap, make_unordered_map,
  make_unordered_multimap, make_reference_flat_map and
  make_reference_flat_multimap examples now name their template arguments
  explicitly. The template deduction guide examples are unchanged, as
  those sections are labelled C++17 and above. Verified with clang 22 in
  C++14 mode, which, like C++11, has no deduction guides.

- The four make_reference_flat_* examples are now preceded by a warning
  callout stating that they do not currently compile: the functions
  cannot be instantiated because the reference containers have no
  initializer_list constructor. The examples themselves are retained,
  rewritten to pass named lvalues rather than temporaries, since the
  reference containers store references to external objects and the
  temporaries would dangle even if the functions compiled. The defect
  is being reported separately.

title: "unordered_map"
---
{{< callout type="info">}}
Header: `unordered_map.h`
Similar to: `std::unordered_map`
{{< /callout >}}
A fixed capacity unordered map.
Uses `std::less` as the default key comparison method.
This page just describes etl::unordered_map.
```cpp
template <typename TKey,
typename TValue,
size_t MAX_SIZE,
size_t MAX_BUCKETS = MAX_SIZE,
typename THash = etl::hash<TKey>,
typename TKeyEqual = etl::equal_to<TKey>>
class unordered_map
```
Inherits from `iunordered_map<TKey, TValue, THash, TKeyEqual>`.
`etl::iunordered_map` may be used as a size independent pointer or reference type for any `etl::unordered_map` instance.
## Template deduction guides
C++17 and above
```cpp
template <typename... TPairs>
etl::unordered_map(TPairs...)
```
### Example
```cpp
etl::unordered_map data{ etl::pair{0, 1}, etl::pair{2, 3}, etl::pair{4, 5}, etl::pair{6, 7} };
```
Defines data as an unordered map of `int`/`int` pairs, of length 4, containing the supplied data.
## Make template
C++11 and above
```cpp
template <typename TKey,
typename T,
typename THash = etl::hash<TKey>,
typename TKeyEqual = etl::equal_to<TKey>,
typename... TPairs>
constexpr auto make_unordered_map(TPairs&&... pairs) -> etl::unordered_map<TKey, T, sizeof...(TPairs), sizeof...(TPairs), THash, TKeyEqual>
```
### Example
```cpp
auto data = etl::make_unordered_map<int, int>(etl::pair<int, int>{0, 1}, etl::pair<int, int>{2, 3},
etl::pair<int, int>{4, 5}, etl::pair<int, int>{6, 7});
```
## Member types
```cpp
value_type pair<const TKey, T>
key_type The type of the key value
mapped_type The type of the mapped value
hasher The type used to hash the key
key_equal The functor used to compare keys
reference A reference to a value_type
const_reference A reference to a const value_type
pointer A pointer to a value_type
const_pointer A pointer to a const value_type
size_type The type used for size information
iterator Random access iterator
const_iterator Constant random access iterator
local_iterator Iterator to a bucket
local_const_iterator A const iterator to a bucket
```

## Element access
```cpp
mapped_type& at(key_parameter_t key)
const mapped_type& at(key_parameter_t key) const
```
**Description**
Returns a reference or const reference to the indexed element.
Raises an `etl::unordered_map_out_of_range` if the key is not in the table.
If assert or exceptions are not enabled then undefined behaviour occurs.
