/**
* A class for representing string return values. This can be either passed to
* callees that have an nsString or nsAString out param or passed to a callee
* that actually knows about this class and can work with it. Such a callee may
* call these setters:
*
* SetKnownLiveStringBuffer
* SetStringBuffer
* SetKnownLiveString
* SetKnownLiveAtom
* SetNull
*
* to assign a value to the DOMString without instantiating an actual nsString
* in the process, or use AsAString() to instantiate an nsString and work with
* it. These options are mutually exclusive! Don't do more than one of them.
*
* It's only OK to call
* SetKnownLiveStringBuffer/SetKnownLiveString/SetKnownLiveAtom if the caller of
* the method in question plans to keep holding a strong ref to the stringbuffer
* involved, whether it's a raw mozilla::StringBuffer, or stored inside the
* string or atom being passed. In the string/atom cases that means the caller
* must own the string or atom, and not mutate it (in the string case) for the
* lifetime of the DOMString.
*
* The proper way to extract a value is to check IsNull(). If not null, then
* check IsEmpty(). If neither of those is true, check HasStringBuffer(). If
* that's true, call StringBuffer()/StringBufferLength(). If HasStringBuffer()
* returns false, check HasLiteral, and if that returns true call
* Literal()/LiteralLength(). If HasLiteral() is false, call AsAString() and
* get the value from that.
