I think it will be possible to make `String` implement `Deref<str>`
when DST land. Then it will be possible to convert from `String` to
`&str` using explicit reborrowing:
let sgf_slice = &*sgf;
I'm not sure this will be fully automatic when `String` is an
arbitrary actual argument to arbitrary function, however.
