- Specialized slow-case string equality nine ways based on the

  underlying string representation of the two strings involved.
- Renamed ascii and two byte string classes to sequential ascii and
  sequential two byte, and renamed IsAscii and friends to
  IsAsciiRepresentation.  This is to make a clear distinction between
  strings with an ascii/two-byte representation, of which there is
  four, and flat sequential ascii/two-byte string.
