 * This handle represents permission to perform low-level writes
 * the storage buffer of a string in a manner that's aware of the
 * actual capacity of the storage buffer allocation and that's
 * cache-friendly in the sense that the writing of zero terminator
 * for C compatibility can happen in linear memory access order
 * (i.e. the zero terminator write takes place after writing
 * new content to the string as opposed to the zero terminator
 * write happening first causing a non-linear memory write for
 * cache purposes).
 *
 * If you requested a prefix to be preserved when starting
 * or restarting the bulk write, the prefix is present at the
 * start of the buffer exposed by this handle as Span or
 * as a raw pointer, and it's your responsibility to start
 * writing after after the preserved prefix (which you
 * presumably wanted not to overwrite since you asked for
 * it to be preserved).
 *
 * In a success case, you must call Finish() with the new
 * length of the string. In failure cases, it's OK to return
 * early from the function whose local variable this handle is.
 * The destructor of this class takes care of putting the
 * string in a valid and mostly harmless state in that case
 * by setting the value of a non-empty string to a single
 * REPLACEMENT CHARACTER or in the case of nsACString that's
 * too short for a REPLACEMENT CHARACTER to fit, an ASCII
 * SUBSTITUTE.
 *
 * You must not allow this handle to outlive the string you
 * obtained it from.
 *
 * You must not access the string you obtained this handle
 * from in any way other than through this handle until
 * you call Finish() on the handle or the handle goes out
 * of scope.
 *
 * Once you've called Finish(), you must not call any
 * methods on this handle and must not use values previously
 * obtained.
 *
 * Once you call RestartBulkWrite(), you must not use
 * values previously obtained from this handle and must
 * reobtain the new corresponding values.
