-//! A UTF-8 encoded, growable string.
-//!
-//! This module contains the [`String`] type, a trait for converting
-//! [`ToString`]s, and several error types that may result from working with
-//! [`String`]s.
-//!
-//! # Examples
-//!
-//! There are multiple ways to create a new [`String`] from a string literal:
-//!
-//! ```
-//! let s = "Hello".to_string();
-//!
-//! let s = String::from("world");
-//! let s: String = "also this".into();
-//! ```
-//!
-//! You can create a new [`String`] from an existing one by concatenating with
-//! `+`:
-//!
-//! ```
-//! let s = "Hello".to_string();
-//!
-//! let message = s + " world!";
-//! ```
-//!
-//! If you have a vector of valid UTF-8 bytes, you can make a [`String`] out of
-//! it. You can do the reverse too.
-//!
-//! ```
-//! let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];
-//!
-//! // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
-//! let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();
-//!
-//! assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);
-//!
-//! let bytes = sparkle_heart.into_bytes();
-//!
-//! assert_eq!(bytes, [240, 159, 146, 150]);
-//! ```

-/// A UTF-8 encoded, growable string.
-///
-/// The `String` type is the most common string type that has ownership over the
-/// contents of the string. It has a close relationship with its borrowed
-/// counterpart, the primitive [`str`].
-///
-/// # Examples
-///
-/// You can create a `String` from [a literal string][`str`] with [`String::from`]:
-///
-/// [`String::from`]: From::from
-///
-/// ```
-/// let hello = String::from("Hello, world!");
-/// ```
-///
-/// You can append a [`char`] to a `String` with the [`push`] method, and
-/// append a [`&str`] with the [`push_str`] method:
-///
-/// ```
-/// let mut hello = String::from("Hello, ");
-///
-/// hello.push('w');
-/// hello.push_str("orld!");
-/// ```
-///
-/// [`push`]: String::push
-/// [`push_str`]: String::push_str
-///
-/// If you have a vector of UTF-8 bytes, you can create a `String` from it with
-/// the [`from_utf8`] method:
-///
-/// ```
-/// // some bytes, in a vector
-/// let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];
-///
-/// // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
-/// let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();
-///
-/// assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);
-/// ```
-///
-/// [`from_utf8`]: String::from_utf8
-///
-/// # UTF-8
-///
-/// `String`s are always valid UTF-8. This has a few implications, the first of
-/// which is that if you need a non-UTF-8 string, consider [`OsString`]. It is
-/// similar, but without the UTF-8 constraint. The second implication is that
-/// you cannot index into a `String`:
-///
-/// ```compile_fail,E0277
-/// let s = "hello";
-///
-/// println!("The first letter of s is {}", s[0]); // ERROR!!!
-/// ```
-///
-/// [`OsString`]: ../../std/ffi/struct.OsString.html
-///
-/// Indexing is intended to be a constant-time operation, but UTF-8 encoding
-/// does not allow us to do this. Furthermore, it's not clear what sort of
-/// thing the index should return: a byte, a codepoint, or a grapheme cluster.
-/// The [`bytes`] and [`chars`] methods return iterators over the first
-/// two, respectively.
-///
-/// [`bytes`]: str::bytes
-/// [`chars`]: str::chars
-///
-/// # Deref
-///
-/// `String`s implement [`Deref`]`<Target=str>`, and so inherit all of [`str`]'s
-/// methods. In addition, this means that you can pass a `String` to a
-/// function which takes a [`&str`] by using an ampersand (`&`):
-///
-/// ```
-/// fn takes_str(s: &str) { }
-///
-/// let s = String::from("Hello");
-///
-/// takes_str(&s);
-/// ```
-///
-/// This will create a [`&str`] from the `String` and pass it in. This
-/// conversion is very inexpensive, and so generally, functions will accept
-/// [`&str`]s as arguments unless they need a `String` for some specific
-/// reason.
-///
-/// In certain cases Rust doesn't have enough information to make this
-/// conversion, known as [`Deref`] coercion. In the following example a string
-/// slice [`&'a str`][`&str`] implements the trait `TraitExample`, and the function
-/// `example_func` takes anything that implements the trait. In this case Rust
-/// would need to make two implicit conversions, which Rust doesn't have the
-/// means to do. For that reason, the following example will not compile.
-///
-/// ```compile_fail,E0277
-/// trait TraitExample {}
-///
-/// impl<'a> TraitExample for &'a str {}
-///
-/// fn example_func<A: TraitExample>(example_arg: A) {}
-///
-/// let example_string = String::from("example_string");
-/// example_func(&example_string);
-/// ```
-///
-/// There are two options that would work instead. The first would be to
-/// change the line `example_func(&example_string);` to
-/// `example_func(example_string.as_str());`, using the method [`as_str()`]
-/// to explicitly extract the string slice containing the string. The second
-/// way changes `example_func(&example_string);` to
-/// `example_func(&*example_string);`. In this case we are dereferencing a
-/// `String` to a [`str`][`&str`], then referencing the [`str`][`&str`] back to
-/// [`&str`]. The second way is more idiomatic, however both work to do the
-/// conversion explicitly rather than relying on the implicit conversion.
-///
-/// # Representation
-///
-/// A `String` is made up of three components: a pointer to some bytes, a
-/// length, and a capacity. The pointer points to an internal buffer `String`
-/// uses to store its data. The length is the number of bytes currently stored
-/// in the buffer, and the capacity is the size of the buffer in bytes. As such,
-/// the length will always be less than or equal to the capacity.
-///
-/// This buffer is always stored on the heap.
-///
-/// You can look at these with the [`as_ptr`], [`len`], and [`capacity`]
-/// methods:
-///
-/// ```
-/// use std::mem;
-///
-/// let story = String::from("Once upon a time...");
-///
-// FIXME Update this when vec_into_raw_parts is stabilized
-/// // Prevent automatically dropping the String's data
-/// let mut story = mem::ManuallyDrop::new(story);
-///
-/// let ptr = story.as_mut_ptr();
-/// let len = story.len();
-/// let capacity = story.capacity();
-///
-/// // story has nineteen bytes
-/// assert_eq!(19, len);
-///
-/// // We can re-build a String out of ptr, len, and capacity. This is all
-/// // unsafe because we are responsible for making sure the components are
-/// // valid:
-/// let s = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts(ptr, len, capacity) } ;
-///
-/// assert_eq!(String::from("Once upon a time..."), s);
-/// ```
-///
-/// [`as_ptr`]: str::as_ptr
-/// [`len`]: String::len
-/// [`capacity`]: String::capacity
-///
-/// If a `String` has enough capacity, adding elements to it will not
-/// re-allocate. For example, consider this program:
-///
-/// ```
-/// let mut s = String::new();
-///
-/// println!("{}", s.capacity());
-///
-/// for _ in 0..5 {
-///     s.push_str("hello");
-///     println!("{}", s.capacity());
-/// }
-/// ```
-///
-/// This will output the following:
-///
-/// ```text
-/// 0
-/// 5
-/// 10
-/// 20
-/// 20
-/// 40
-/// ```
-///
-/// At first, we have no memory allocated at all, but as we append to the
-/// string, it increases its capacity appropriately. If we instead use the
-/// [`with_capacity`] method to allocate the correct capacity initially:
-///
-/// ```
-/// let mut s = String::with_capacity(25);
-///
-/// println!("{}", s.capacity());
-///
-/// for _ in 0..5 {
-///     s.push_str("hello");
-///     println!("{}", s.capacity());
-/// }
-/// ```
-///
-/// [`with_capacity`]: String::with_capacity
-///
-/// We end up with a different output:
-///
-/// ```text
-/// 25
-/// 25
-/// 25
-/// 25
-/// 25
-/// 25
-/// ```
-///
-/// Here, there's no need to allocate more memory inside the loop.

-/// Implements the `+` operator for concatenating two strings.
-///
-/// This consumes the `String` on the left-hand side and re-uses its buffer (growing it if
-/// necessary). This is done to avoid allocating a new `String` and copying the entire contents on
-/// every operation, which would lead to *O*(*n*^2) running time when building an *n*-byte string by
-/// repeated concatenation.
-///
-/// The string on the right-hand side is only borrowed; its contents are copied into the returned
-/// `String`.
-///
-/// # Examples
-///
-/// Concatenating two `String`s takes the first by value and borrows the second:
-///
-/// ```
-/// let a = String::from("hello");
-/// let b = String::from(" world");
-/// let c = a + &b;
-/// // `a` is moved and can no longer be used here.
-/// ```
-///
-/// If you want to keep using the first `String`, you can clone it and append to the clone instead:
-///
-/// ```
-/// let a = String::from("hello");
-/// let b = String::from(" world");
-/// let c = a.clone() + &b;
-/// // `a` is still valid here.
-/// ```
-///
-/// Concatenating `&str` slices can be done by converting the first to a `String`:
-///
-/// ```
-/// let a = "hello";
-/// let b = " world";
-/// let c = a.to_string() + b;
