Previously, ControlList::get<T>() would use default constructed objects to
indicate that a ControlList does not have the requested Control. This has
several disadvantages: 1) It requires types to be default constructible,
2) it does not differentiate between a default constructed object and an
object that happens to have the same state as a default constructed object.
std::optional<T> additionally stores the information if the object is valid
or not, and therefore is more expressive than a default constructed object.
