Description
The class template _Is_checked_helper has been left unused since the initial commit on Github.
It's unclear what the "pseudo-documentation" is. Perhaps we should either improve the comment or entirely remove _Is_checked_helper.

Research direction
Start in stl/inc/xutility at lines 1305-1306 and inspect the unused _Is_checked_helper declaration and its surrounding comment. Determine whether the comment can clearly document the intent or whether the helper should be removed; done means the ambiguity is resolved in the source without leaving the unused pseudo-documentation.
