StringVIew should be made compatible with std::string_view for C++17
`StringView` is strongly different from the original proposals for string
reference classes (e.g. `Boost.StringRef`) but the current proposal for C++17,
`std::string_view`, is quite close in design and use. While `StringView` should
be retained as it provides a number of essential methods not in
`std::string_view`, `StringView` can be made to be a strict superset of
`std::string_view` so that any code that uses `std::string_view` can replace
`std::string_view` with `StringView`, and any developer used to
`std::string_view` could immediately use `StringView`. In addition,
`StringView` should promote direct interoperability, providing implicit
conversions to and from `std::string_view`.
