/**
A simple class for holding temporary references to a string literal or String.
Unlike a real String object, the StringRef does not allocate any memory or
take ownership of the strings you give to it - it simply holds a reference to
a string that has been allocated elsewhere.
The main purpose of the class is to be used instead of a const String& as the type
of function arguments where the caller may pass either a string literal or a String
object. This means that when the called uses a string literal, there's no need
for an temporary String object to be allocated, and this cuts down overheads
substantially.
Because the class is simply a wrapper around a pointer, you should always pass
it by value, not by reference.
@code
void myStringFunction1 (const String&);
void myStringFunction2 (StringRef);
myStringFunction1 ("abc"); // Implicitly allocates a temporary String object.
myStringFunction2 ("abc"); // Much faster, as no local allocations are needed.
@endcode
For examples of it in use, see the XmlElement or StringArray classes.
Bear in mind that there are still many cases where it's better to use an argument
which is a const String&. For example if the function stores the string or needs
to internally create a String from the argument, then it's better for the original
argument to already be a String.
