- this file excluded from the CATCH_CONFIG_DISABLE_MATCHERS path.
- matchers are always compiled in to the impl file
- _THROWS_WITH macros are still available with matchers disabled - but only the ones that take a string
- tests that use matchers have #ifdefs, so the whole SelfTest project can compile with matchers disable.
The toggle is `CATCH_CONFIG_DISABLE_MATCHERS` and the only use is
to speed up compilation of small TUs. For large ones it is likely
insignificant, because the speed up is constant relative to
number of tests/assertions in TU.
All C++11 toggles are now removed. What is left is either platform
specific (POSIX_SIGNALS, WINDOWS_SEH), or possibly still needed
(USE_COUNTER).
If current CLion is compatible with `__COUNTER__`, then we should also
force `__COUNTER__` usage.

In reality, this is a relatively small performance improvement,
especially with the previous improvements removing lots of superfluous
string handling, but still was measurable.
* Empty strings are now direct constructed as `std::string()`, not as empty string literals.
* `startsWith` and `endsWith` no longer construct new a string. This should be an improvement
for libstdc++ when using older standards, as it doesn't use SSO but COW and thus even short
strings are expensive to first create.
* Various places now use char literal instead of string literals containing single char.
** `startsWith` and `endsWith` now also have overload that takes single char.
Generally the performance improvements under VS2015 are small, as going from short string
to char is mostly meaningless because of SSO (Catch doesn't push string handling that hard)
and previous commit removed most string handling if tests pass, which is the expect case.
- it was forward declared as a class, which caused warnings on some compilers. It should really have been a class anyway.
- this addresses the same issue as PR #534, albeit from the other angle.
