#' @title
#' Trim Characters from the Left and/or Right Side of a String
#'
#' @description
#' These functions may be used, e.g., to remove unnecessary
#' white-spaces from strings. Trimming ends at the first or
#' starts at the last \code{pattern} match.
#'
#' @details
#' Vectorized over \code{str} and \code{pattern}.
#'
#' \code{stri_trim} is a convenience wrapper over \code{stri_trim_left}
#' and \code{stri_trim_right}.
#'
#' Contrary to many other string processing libraries,
#' our trimming functions are universal. A character class,
#' given by \code{pattern}, may be adjusted to suit your needs
#' (yet, most often you stick to the default value).
#'
#' For replacing pattern matches with
#' arbitrary replacement string, see \code{\link{stri_replace}}.
#'
#' Trimming can also be used where you would normally rely on
#' regular expressions. For instance, you may get
#' \code{'23.5'} out of \code{'total of 23.5 bitcoins'}.
#'
#' For trimming white-spaces, please note the difference
#' between Unicode binary property `\code{\\p\{Wspace\}}` (more universal)
#' and general character category `\code{\\p\{Z\}}`,
#' see \link{stringi-search-charclass}.
#'
#' @param str a character vector of strings to be trimmed
#' @param pattern a single pattern, specifying character
#' classes that should be preserved (see \link{stringi-search-charclass}).
#' Defaults to `\code{\\P\{Wspace\}}.
#' @param side character [\code{stri_trim} only]; defaults to \code{'both'}
#'
#' @return All these functions return a character vector.
#'
#' @examples
#' stri_trim_left(' aaa')
#' stri_trim_right('r-project.org/', '\\p{P}')
#' stri_trim_both(' Total of 23.5 bitcoins. ', '\\p{N}')
#' stri_trim_both(' Total of 23.5 bitcoins. ', '\\p{L}')
