## Detailed Description

This is a special object that may hold an std::string or alternatively reference to external (unowned) chunk of text.

It is designed to be used for efficiency and reduce amount of memory allocations and copies.

It has interface that is roughly similar to the interface of std::string, but it does not provide a members that can mutate it or provide a NUL terminated string c_str().
