Returns *this if it contains a value. Otherwise, returns the result of f.

The program is ill-formed if std::remove_cvref_t<std::invoke_result_t<F>> is not same as std::optional<T>.

1) Equivalent to return *this ? *this : std::forward<F>(f)();. This overload participates in overload resolution only if both std::copy_constructible<T> and std::invocable<F> are modeled.
2) Equivalent to return *this ? std::move(*this) : std::forward<F>(f)();. This overload participates in overload resolution only if both std::move_constructible<T> and std::invocable<F> are modeled.
