Rework StringRef interface and internals
Now it no longer tries to be this weird hybrid between an owning
and non-owning reference, and is only ever non-owning. This is also
reflected in its interface, for example `StringRef::isNullTerminated`
is now public, and `StringRef::c_str()` has the precondition that it
is true.

Overview of the changes:
* The `StringRef::m_data` member has been completely removed, as it
had no more uses.
* `StringRef::isSubstring()` has been made public and renamed to
`StringRef::isNullTerminated()`, so that the name reflects what the
method actually does.
* `StringRef::currentData()` has been renamed to `StringRef::data()`,
to be in line with common C++ containers and container-alikes.
* `StringRef::c_str()` will no longer silently make copies. It instead
has a precondition that `isNullTerminated()` is true.
* If the user needs a null-terminated string, they should use the
`std::string` conversion operator and call `c_str()` on the resulting
`std::string`.
* Some small optimizations in various places.
* Basic functionality is now `constexpr`.

Catch2 is released!

If you've been using an earlier version of Catch, please see the Breaking Changes section of the release notes before moving to Catch2. You might also like to read this blog post for more details.

What's the Catch?

Catch2 is a multi-paradigm test framework for C++. which also supports Objective-C (and maybe C). It is primarily distributed as a single header file, although certain extensions may require additional headers.

How to use it
