Unqual is the standard way today to get a head-mutable version

value types, including structs without aliasing, thi works. For
AAs, classes, and structs with aliasing, Unqual is the wrong
tool, but it's the tool we have, so it's what we use.
I made an old PR for a Rebindable that works with const/immutable
structs with aliasing:
https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/4363
I didn't have time to get it merged though. I didn't think about
AAs, but we already have Rebindable for classes, and Rebindable
could probably easily support the other types. Then we could swap
those uses of Unqual for Rebindable.
