Actually, the layout is the same, but we move the control block. To prevent
padding of the short string, we use pragma pack(1). To align the pointer
again, we add some dummy data with the size of a pointer minus a control
block because alignas is not working like expected on GCC.

There can be quite some copies with the swap method for the default case
that the string is inside the small string area. Instead now we minimize
copies of the smallstring area at the expense of more branches.
The swap approch needs no self tests and it uses the destructor to
remove allocated resources but it can copy three times more often. And
the destructor still has an additional branch in the copy case. Only in
the move case we can use the destructor of the other instance. This can
be surprising for some users which expect that the instance is empty
after a move(actually assuming that a instance is empty after a move is
undefined behavior).
Because SmallString is designed to hold the string in almost all cases
inside the small string area that case should be optimized.

Using a value after the move is undefined. For example, if you move an
integer, it is not set to zero after the move. So you have to initialize
it again. Adding the take method to SmallString makes this explicit.
So if there is a case that you want to use the string again after
a move, use take or initialize it yourself.

The bug was that we returned the new end() but not the old reallocated
after a reallocation of the memory. The return value is used to move the
string after the found sub string to the next found sub string to the
new position of after the replaced sub string. Because the new end moved
more to the right we moved a much bigger chunk of memory. So we
accessed memory outside of the allocated memory.
