Character string object (later to support collection behavior)..
The String object type packages a null-terminated, C-format character string into an object. All memory allocation needed to hold the string value is handled by the object. This type currently defines only the most rudimentary operations for initializing and appending C-format character strings. These are sufficient for its current limited roles in places that need a uniformity between character strings and other kinds of allocated objects.

- The create: message creates a new instance of a type with default options. The zone argument specifies the source of storage for the new object. The receiving object of this message is a previously defined type object. The message is declared as a class message (with a + declaration tag) to indicate that the message is accepted only by the type object itself rather than an already created instance of the type (which a - declaration tag otherwise defines). The create: message returns the new object just created. This object is an instance of some class selected to implement the type. The class which a type selects to implement an object may be obtained by the getClass message, but is not otherwise visible to the calling program. A caller never refers to any class name when creating objects using these messages, only to type names, which are automatically published as global constants from any @protocol declaration.
