/* String representation.

   A string is a piece of a stringbuf.  A stringbuf can be used by
   more than one string.  When a string is written to and the
   stringbuf of that string is used by more than one string, a new
   stringbuf is created.  That is, strings are copy-on-write.  This
   behavior can be used to make the substring operation quite
   efficient.

   The implementation is tuned so that mutating a string is costly,
   but just reading it is cheap and lock-free.

   There are also mutation-sharing strings.  They refer to a part of
   an ordinary string.  Writing to a mutation-sharing string just
   writes to the ordinary string.


   Internal, low level interface to the character arrays

   - Use scm_is_narrow_string to determine is the string is narrow or
     wide.

   - Use scm_i_string_chars or scm_i_string_wide_chars to get a
     pointer to the byte or scm_t_wchar array of a string for reading.
     Use scm_i_string_length to get the number of characters in that
     array.  The array is not null-terminated.

   - The array is valid as long as the corresponding SCM object is
     protected but only until the next SCM_TICK.  During such a 'safe
     point', strings might change their representation.

   - Use scm_i_string_start_writing to get a version of the string
     ready for reading and writing.  This is a potentially costly
     operation since it implements the copy-on-write behavior.  When
     done with the writing, call scm_i_string_stop_writing.  You must
     do this before the next SCM_TICK.  (This means, before calling
     almost any other scm_ function and you can't allow throws, of
     course.)

   - New strings can be created with scm_i_make_string or
     scm_i_make_wide_string.  This gives access to a writable pointer
     that remains valid as long as nobody else makes a copy-on-write
     substring of the string.  Do not call scm_i_string_stop_writing
     for this pointer.

   - Alternately, scm_i_string_ref and scm_i_string_set_x can be used
     to read and write strings without worrying about whether the
     string is narrow or wide.  scm_i_string_set_x still needs to be
     bracketed by scm_i_string_start_writing and
     scm_i_string_stop_writing.

   Legacy interface

   - SCM_STRINGP is just scm_is_string.

   - SCM_STRING_CHARS uses scm_i_string_writable_chars and immediately
     calls scm_i_stop_writing, hoping for the best.  SCM_STRING_LENGTH
     is the same as scm_i_string_length.  SCM_STRING_CHARS will throw
     an error for for strings that are not null-terminated.  There is
     no wide version of this interface.
