  // Some terminology:

  //   "dependent buffer"    A dependent buffer is one that the string class
  //                         does not own.  The string class relies on some
  //                         external code to ensure the lifetime of the
  //                         dependent buffer.
  //
  //   "shared buffer"       A shared buffer is one that the string class
  //                         allocates.  When it allocates a shared string
  //                         buffer, it allocates some additional space at
  //                         the beginning of the buffer for additional
  //                         fields, including a reference count and a
  //                         buffer length.  See nsStringHeader.
  //
  //   "adopted buffer"      An adopted buffer is a raw string buffer
  //                         allocated on the heap (using nsMemory::Alloc)
  //                         of which the string class subsumes ownership.
  //
  // Some comments about the string flags:
  //
  //   F_SHARED, F_OWNED, and F_FIXED are all mutually exlusive.  They
  //   indicate the allocation type of mData.  If none of these flags
  //   are set, then the string buffer is dependent.
  //
  //   F_SHARED, F_OWNED, or F_FIXED imply F_TERMINATED.  This is because
  //   the string classes always allocate null-terminated buffers, and
  //   non-terminated substrings are always dependent.
  //
  //   F_VOIDED implies F_TERMINATED, and moreover it implies that mData
  //   points to char_traits::sEmptyBuffer.  Therefore, F_VOIDED is
  //   mutually exclusive with F_SHARED, F_OWNED, and F_FIXED.
