deduction guides for std::weak_ptr

Since C++17
template<class T>weak_ptr(std::shared_ptr<T>) -> weak_ptr<T>;

One deduction guide is provided for std::weak_ptr to account for the edge case missed by the implicit deduction guides.

Example

#include <memory> int main(){    auto p = std::make_shared<int>(42);    std::weak_ptr w{p};    // explicit deduction guide is used in this case}
