Great idea.

I also encountered this in tuple/test/tuple_test_bench.cpp. It's named
"dummy" in there.

I like the name unused_variable.

I also seem some benefit, and little harm, in having another function
template called unused_variables that takes multiple parameters as suggested
by Fernando Cacciola.
