3/// A specialized copy-on-write byte string.
4///
5/// The purpose of this type is to permit usage of a "borrowed or owned
6/// byte string" in a way that keeps std/no-std compatibility. That is, in
7/// no-std/alloc mode, this type devolves into a simple &[u8] with no owned
8/// variant available. We can't just use a plain Cow because Cow is not in
9/// core.
