95cc4c7e74 AK: Add some string comparison operators
Some of these are very inefficient. It's nice to have some optimization
opportunities in the future though. :^)

7d862dd5fc AK: Reduce header dependency graph of String.h
String.h no longer pulls in StringView.h. We do this by moving a bunch
of String functions out-of-line.

4f72f6b886 AK: Add FlyString, a simple flyweight string class
FlyString is a flyweight string class that wraps a RefPtr<StringImpl>
known to be unique among the set of FlyStrings. The class is very
unoptimized at the moment.

When to use FlyString:

- When you want O(1) string comparison
- When you want to deduplicate a lot of identical strings

When not to use FlyString:

- For strings that don't need either of the above features
- For strings that are likely to be unique
