A new operator, operator""sv was added as of C++17 to support
string_view literals. This allows string_views to be constructed
from string literals and with no runtime cost to find the string
length.
See: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string_view/operator%22%22sv
This change implements that functionality in AK::StringView.
We do have to suppress some warnings about implementing reserved
operators as we are essentially implementing STL functions in AK
as we have no STL :).
These methods search from the beginning or end of a string for the
first character in the input StringView and returns the position in
the string of the first match. Note that this is not a substring match.
Each comes with single char overloads for efficiency.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
This was a workaround to be able to build on case-insensitive file
systems where it might get confused about <string.h> vs <String.h>.
Let's just not support building that way, so String.h can have an
objectively nicer name. :^)
