shift_right() 打算如何在 C++20 中实现？

Question

在 C++20 中，<algorithm> header 获得了两个新算法：shift_left() and shift_right()。它们都接受任何 LegacyForwardIterator。对于shift_left()，指定"the moves are performed in increasing order of i starting from 0" ；对于shift_right()，指定"if ForwardIt meets the LegacyBidirectionalIterator requirements, then the moves are performed in decreasing order of i starting from last - first - n - 1".

我能想到一个相当简单的实现方法shift_left():

template <typename ForwardIt>
constexpr inline ForwardIt shift_left(ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last, typename std::iterator_traits<ForwardIt>::difference_type n) {
    if (n <= 0) return last;
    ForwardIt it = first;
    for (; n > 0; --n, ++it) {
        if (it == last) return first;
    }
    return std::move(it, last, first);
}

如果 ForwardIt 满足 LegacyBidirectionalIterator 要求，我可以看到 shift_right() 可以用与 shift_left() 非常相似的方式实现。但是，完全不清楚如何为 non-bidirectional 前向迭代器实现 shift_right()。

我想出了一个算法，它使用 [first, first+n) 处的 space 作为 scratch space 来交换元素，但它似乎比shift_left() 以上：

template <typename ForwardIt>
constexpr inline ForwardIt shift_right(ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last, typename std::iterator_traits<ForwardIt>::difference_type n) {
    if (n <= 0) return first;
    ForwardIt it = first;
    for (; n > 0; --n, ++it) {
        if (it == last) return last;
    }
    ForwardIt ret = it;
    ForwardIt ret_it = first;
    for (; it != last; ++it) {
        std::iter_swap(ret_it, it);
        ret_it++;
        if (ret_it == ret) ret_it = first;
    }
    return ret;
}

是否有更好的或 "intended" 实施方式 shift_right()？
