The implementation had a lot of boilerplate and was more complicated than
necessary. This NFC refactoring introduces a few macros to reduce code
duplication, and uses a consistent style and formatting for the whole file.

Thanks for the cleanup, this is much improved!

154 | If this is the only use of _LIBCPP_ALLOCATOR_TRAITS_HAS_XXX_TEMPLATE, is it better to just implement it here (and get rid of the macro)? | |
173 | Let's put these at the bottom of the file. Otherwise, if someone tries to use them later on it might create a hard-to-fix error. | |
245 | Could this be __allocator_traits_rebind_t? | |
273 | Why the has_allocate_hint? Is that just for the deprecation warnings? Is it worth just taking the deprecation warnings so we could have just one implementation? For compile-time if nothing else. Those SFINAE checks are slow. | |
296 | I don't really understand why we have two implementations here. This isn't a constexpr context, so they both do the same thing. |
Address Zoe's comments. Note that this is meant to be a NFC commit, so I don't
think we should incorporate additional changes beyond the refactorign to those
changes.

273 | Do you mean that you'd prefer doing the check for whether a.allocate(n, hint) is supported inline in the template declaration? If you're asking why we call allocate with a hint at all, it's because we must. If a user-defined allocator does something special when called with a hint, we need to maintain that. | |
296 | construct_at isn't provided before C++20. |

273 | Oops, I didn't see that we're only passing the hint argument in one of these. Never mind then :) | |
296 | I was thinking the opposite: always construct with placement new. Is there a way (that isn't UB) for a user to know the difference? (This is also a super small thing, no need to address it, I know this is a bit out-of-scope.) |
Thanks for the review Zoe!

296 | The issue is that placement-new doesn't work inside constexpr, but construct_at does. This function is marked as constexpr in C++20 and above (_LIBCPP_CONSTEXPR_AFTER_CXX17). |
