Uses the outer allocator to allocate uninitialized storage.

1) Calls std::allocator_traits<OuterAlloc>::allocate(outer_allocator(), n)
2) Additionally provides memory locality hint, by calling std::allocator_traits<OuterAlloc>::allocate(outer_allocator(), n, hint)

Parameters

n - the number of objects to allocate storage for
hint - pointer to a nearby memory location

Return value

The pointer to the allocated storage
