Hi,

While reading d_ary_heap.hpp from the heap library I was surprised to
see a mix of size_t and size_type variables in an index computation
(https://github.com/boostorg/heap/blob/master/include/boost/heap/d_ary_heap.hpp#L356):

    size_type last_child_index(size_type index) const
    {
        const size_t first_index = first_child_index(index);
        const size_type last_index = (std::min)(first_index + D - 1,
size() - 1);

        return last_index;
    }

Isn't this a typo?
