/*
GSString is the root class of our hierarchy of string classes. All our
classes except GSPlaceholderString inherit from it. GSString provides
the common part of the ivar layout. It also has safe implementations
of all the memory management methods subclasses should override.

Concrete subclasses of GSString are identified by two properties:
how the string is encoded (its structure; 8-bit data or 16-bit unicode
data), and how the memory for the contents is handled (its memory
management).

Two direct subclasses of GSString provide the code for the two structures.
The memory management part of the concrete subclasses is abstracted to
a single flag for the structure classes: free. This is set only if the
_contents buffer is guaranteed to remain valid at least until the instance
has been deallocated.

(It really should be named 'ownsContents' or something similar, but it's
'free' in GSMutableString, and the structures need to be interchangeable.)

Many optimizations, such as retaining instead of copying, and using pointers
to another strings _contents buffer, are valid only if this flag is set.

GSCString, an abstract class that stores the string as 8-bit data in the
internal encoding.

/*
For each memory management scheme, there is a pair of concrete subclasses
of the two abstract structure classes. Each subclass has a single -init...
method which can be used to initialize that specific subclass.

GS*BufferString, concrete subclasses that store the data in an external
(wrt. the instance itself) buffer. The buffer may or may not be owned
by the instance; the 'free' flag indicates which. If it is set,
we need to free the buffer when we are deallocated.
