Why isn't `std.conv.emplaceRef` public when `std.conv.emplace` is?

AFAICT,

emplaceRef(x, ...)

is a bit more @safe than

emplace(&x, ...)

...

I had the same thoughts too:

We can even do this without introducing a new symbol, but simply let emplace accept pointers and ref like we need with formattedRead for nice backwards compatibility.
