PR 90904 notes that auto_vec is unsafe to copy and assign because
the class manages its own memory but doesn't define (or delete)
either special function.  Since I first ran into the problem,
auto_vec has grown a move ctor and move assignment from
a dynamically-allocated vec but still no copy ctor or copy
assignment operator.

The attached patch adds the two special functions to auto_vec along
with a few simple tests.  It makes auto_vec safe to use in containers
that expect copyable and assignable element types and passes bootstrap
and regression testing on x86_64-linux.

The question is whether we want such uses to appear since those
can be quite inefficient?  Thus the option is to delete those operators?

I would strongly prefer the generic vector class to have the properties
expected of any other generic container: copyable and assignable.  If
we also want another vector type with this restriction I suggest to add
another "noncopyable" type and make that property explicit in its name.
I can submit one in a followup patch if you think we need one.

I'm not sure (and not strictly against the copy and assign).  Looking around
I see that vec<> does not do deep copying.  Making auto_vec<> do it
might be surprising (I added the move capability to match how vec<>
is used - as "reference" to a vector)

The vec base classes are special: they have no ctors at all (because
of their use in unions).  That's something we might have to live with
but it's not a model to follow in ordinary containers.

The auto_vec class was introduced to fill the need for a conventional
sequence container with a ctor and dtor.  The missing copy ctor and
assignment operators were an oversight, not a deliberate feature.
This change fixes that oversight.

The revised patch also adds a copy ctor/assignment to the auto_vec
primary template (that's also missing it).  In addition, it adds
a new class called auto_vec_ncopy that disables copying and
assignment as you prefer.  It also disables copying for
the auto_string_vec class.
