/**
 * GString:
 * @str: points to the character data. It may move as text is added.
 *   The @str field is null-terminated and so
 *   can be used as an ordinary C string.
 * @len: contains the length of the string, not including the
 *   terminating nul byte.
 * @allocated_len: the number of bytes that can be stored in the
 *   string before it needs to be reallocated. May be larger than @len.
 *
 * A `GString` is an object that handles the memory management of a C string.
 *
 * The emphasis of `GString` is on text, typically UTF-8. Crucially, the "str" member
 * of a `GString` is guaranteed to have a trailing nul character, and it is therefore
 * always safe to call functions such as `strchr()` or `strdup()` on it.
 *
 * However, a `GString` can also hold arbitrary binary data, because it has a "len" member,
 * which includes any possible embedded nul characters in the data. Conceptually then,
 * `GString` is like a `GByteArray` with the addition of many convenience methods for
 * text, and a guaranteed nul terminator.
