/*
NB: A V string should be/is immutable from the point of view of
    V user programs after it is first created. A V string is
    also slightly larger than the equivalent C string because
    the V string also has an integer length attached.

    This tradeoff is made, since V strings are created just *once*,
    but potentially used *many times* over their lifetime.

    The V string implementation uses a struct, that has a .str field,
    which points to a C style 0 terminated memory block. Although not
    strictly necessary from the V point of view, that additional 0
    is *very useful for C interoperability*.

    The V string implementation also has an integer .len field,
    containing the length of the .str field, excluding the
    terminating 0 (just like the C's strlen(s) would do).

    The 0 ending of .str, and the .len field, mean that in practice:
      a) a V string s can be used very easily, wherever a
         C string is needed, just by passing s.str,
         without a need for further conversion/copying.

      b) where strlen(s) is needed, you can just pass s.len,
         without having to constantly recompute the length of s
         *over and over again* like some C programs do. This is because
         V strings are immutable and so their length does not change.

    Ordinary V code *does not need* to be concerned with the
    additional 0 in the .str field. The 0 *must* be put there by the
    low level string creating functions inside this module.

    Failing to do this will lead to programs that work most of the
    time, when used with pure V functions, but fail in strange ways,
    when used with modules using C functions (for example os and so on).
