I'd say ArrayWorkerBase's _valtype is correct and deque and vector are
wrong to use _elemtype.

C++ containers use value_type for the type of the container objects.
Smart pointers use element_type for the type of the owned object. So
using _valtype for containers and _elemtype for unique_ptr would be
consistent with the C++ library types.
