I want a scope on that reorganization.

What problems do we want to solve? Possible answers:

- Finer grained access to things, either in addition to or in place of coarse access (for example being able to just get function, not all of <functional>)
- More logical access to things (tuple is in <tuple>, so clearly pair must be in <pair>... oh wait)
- Freestanding concerns (separate function from parts of <functional> that are complicated to freestandingifyl

P0581 has some bits of rationale for providing named modules, not just
transitioned headers.
Reorganization seems to be one of them.
