I'm assuming that this code somehow avoids the double-checked lock for
static objects with function scope:
https://github.com/ned14/boost.outcome/blob/master/include/boost/outcome/v1.0/error_code_extended.hpp#L47

Can you please explain how it achieves this goal on all platforms?

I'd also like to understand this declaration:

    BOOSTLITE_NOINLINE inline const std::error_category &_generic_category()

Why is there a no inline macro followed by the inline keyword?
