Hot-path string primitive for the [Axess](https://github.com/GnomesOfZurich/axess) workspace.
`ShortString` is optimised for the workload of short identifiers that are hashed, compared, and cloned at high volume; event taxonomy tags, factor names, routing discriminators. The current internal representation is a placeholder (`Box<str>` / `&'static str`) suitable for getting the API contract in place; future work may swap to an inline-storage variant without changing the surface.
