Comment (by neilgroves):

 Eric has corrected me, it was not correct that advance_begin / advance_end
 were not documented and public. This is therefore a serious matter indeed.
 I have made an immediate fix and pushed to the develop branch.

 I have restored the pop_front() and pop_back() functions as deprecated
 functions. The advance_begin(difference_type) and
 advance_end(difference_type) have been put back into the code and will not
 be removed at a future point. Very rudimentary unit tests have been added
 for these.

 I shall merge to master in cooperation with the release team and do my
 best to ensure this gets into 1.56.

 I'm sorry for my errors.
