switch missing default label warning under clang #56

Description

@bmagistro

When compiling under clang 19.1.7 with werror and a number of other flags (we run with most warnings enabled), the line https://github.com/boostorg/function/blob/develop/include/boost/function/function_base.hpp#L147 is flagged with error: switch missing default label [-Werror,-Wswitch-default]. Given this is based on the enum at

enum functor_manager_operation_type {
and all cases are handled a pr has not been provided at this time. I see two approaches, one is doing a compiler warning suppression and the other is adding the default label with a throw or similar as it should be an unreachable place based on the current code. The suppression seems like the simpler answer but may cause a future update to the enum to be missed here while the throw would prevent that at the cost of potentially changing behavior if something is flagged nothrow. Happy to submit a PR but would need guidance no how it should be approached here.

Env:
Alma 9.6
Boost 1.88.0 via cmake
clang 19.1.7
