/* This is a standard string builder like ones in Java
   or C#. It uses a doubling allocation strategy
   to grow when out of capacity.

   This does not use nsTArray because nsTArray starts
   growing by multiples of page size after it is the
   size of one page. We want to keep doubling in size
   so that we can continue to append at high speed even
   for large strings.

   Eventually, this should be templated for wide characters.
