ITP: libustr

[Charles Wilson]

ustr (Micro string library) is a string API for C. It has tiny overhead
over just plain strdup(), is much safer, is easier to use, is faster
for many operations, can be used with read-only or automatically
allocated data. You don't even need to link to the library to use it
(so there are no dependencies).
