   template <class T>

   {
      typedef __below type;

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

__std_ref 4.5 except 4.5/3 (integral bit-field).

__header ` #include <boost/type_traits/integral_promotion.hpp>` or ` #include <boost/type_traits.hpp>`
