//! Packed Immutable Strings
//!
//! `PackedStr` is a replacement for `Vec<String>` when the strings are all
//! immutable.
//!
//! The benefit of using `PackedStr` is that all of the string data is stored
//! in a single heap allocation. This may save space compared to `Vec<String>`,
//! where each `String` has its own heap allocation, and associated costs (excess
//! `String` capacity, allocator metadata, heap fragmentation).
//!
//! In addition, each `String` stores its own size and capacity, which are not
//! necessary due to the `PackedStr` design.
//!
//! `PackedStr` is implemented as one large buffer containing all the string data,
//! and a list of indexes into the buffer. Each string slice can be reconstructed
//! from its index, and the index of the next string (or the end of the buffer,
//! for the last string).
//!
