/// Twine - A lightweight data structure for efficiently representing the
/// concatenation of temporary values as strings.
///
/// A Twine is a kind of rope, it represents a concatenated string using a
/// binary-tree, where the string is the preorder of the nodes. Since the
/// Twine can be efficiently rendered into a buffer when its result is used,
/// it avoids the cost of generating temporary values for intermediate string
/// results -- particularly in cases when the Twine result is never
/// required. By explicitly tracking the type of leaf nodes, we can also avoid
/// the creation of temporary strings for conversions operations (such as
/// appending an integer to a string).
///
/// A Twine is not intended for use directly and should not be stored, its
/// implementation relies on the ability to store pointers to temporary stack
/// objects which may be deallocated at the end of a statement. Twines should
/// only be used accepted as const references in arguments, when an API wishes
/// to accept possibly-concatenated strings.
///
/// Twines support a special 'null' value, which always concatenates to form
/// itself, and renders as an empty string. This can be returned from APIs to
/// effectively nullify any concatenations performed on the result.
///
/// \b Implementation \n
///
/// Given the nature of a Twine, it is not possible for the Twine's
/// concatenation method to construct interior nodes; the result must be
/// represented inside the returned value. For this reason a Twine object
/// actually holds two values, the left- and right-hand sides of a
/// concatenation. We also have nullary Twine objects, which are effectively
/// sentinel values that represent empty strings.
///
/// Thus, a Twine can effectively have zero, one, or two children. The \see
/// isNullary(), \see isUnary(), and \see isBinary() predicates exist for
/// testing the number of children.
///
/// We maintain a number of invariants on Twine objects (FIXME: Why):
/// - Nullary twines are always represented with their Kind on the left-hand
/// side, and the Empty kind on the right-hand side.
/// - Unary twines are always represented with the value on the left-hand
/// side, and the Empty kind on the right-hand side.
/// - If a Twine has another Twine as a child, that child should always be
/// binary (otherwise it could have been folded into the parent).
///
/// These invariants are check by \see isValid().
///
/// \b Efficiency Considerations \n
///
/// The Twine is designed to yield efficient and small code for common
/// situations. For this reason, the concat() method is inlined so that
/// concatenations of leaf nodes can be optimized into stores directly into a
/// single stack allocated object.
///
/// In practice, not all compilers can be trusted to optimize concat() fully,
/// so we provide two additional methods (and accompanying operator+
/// overloads) to guarantee that particularly important cases (cstring plus
/// StringRef) codegen as desired.
