   template <class T> using floating_point_promotion_t = typename floating_point_promotion<T>::type; // C++11 and above

__type If floating point promotion can be applied to an rvalue of type `T`,
then applies floating point promotion to `T` and keeps cv-qualifiers of `T`,
otherwise leaves `T` unchanged.
