/*  The StrLit class and associated macros provide a mechanism for retaining the
    length C string literals at compile time. This is preferrable to repeated
    recalculation of the length, usually with strlen(). For example, this:

        String s("hello world");

    Is less efficient than this:

        String s("hello world", 11);

    The first form, forces the String constructor to call strlen(), an O(N)
    operation. This is unfortunate for C string literals since the length can
    be obtained at compile time with the sizeof operator. For example:

        String s("hello world", sizeof("hello world") - 1);

    But repeating the literal twice is error prone, so instead we use the
    STRLIT_ARGS() macro.

        String s(STRLIT_ARGS("hello world"));

    This macro can also be used to define StrLit objects at compile time.
    For example:

        const StrLit DEFAULT_HOSTNAME(STRLIT_ARGS("localhost"));

    You can implement functions that take StrLit objects. For example, we
    define this function:

        operator<<(const Buffer&, const StrLit&);

    This function can be used in two ways. You can pass predefined StrLit
    object to it like this:

        Buffer out;
        out << DEFAULT_HOSTNAME;

    Or you can use the STRLIT() macro to construct on on the fly:

        Buffer out;
        out << STRLIT("localhost");

    Note that the latter form would be faster than this, since somebody
    is going to have to call strlen() eventually.

        Buffer out;
        out << "localhost";

    At first glance, this may seem like a small optimization, but this
    technique alone was used to decrease the Pegasus CIM server latency
    by ten percent (with only moderate application to the XML marshalling
    routines).
