We used only 6 bit to save the short size but for SmallString with a size
over 64 it is not enough. So we have now to use a uint16 instead of a
uint8 if the size if over 64.

Seems to be a compiler bug and can be removed if fixed in the compiler.

We now support constexpr, noexcept and alignas on all compilers. Next will
be C++ 14 constexpr support.

The size of the small string optimization was hard coded. For some use
cases you want a bigger or smaller size. It is now configurable by a
template parameter. For that we changed the name to BasicSmallString and
added an alias of BasicSmallString<31> to SmallString.

HasAllocated it misleading because it means that it has read only
references too. Maybe isPointing would be good too but so it is more
orthogonal to isReadOnlyReference.

There is implicit knowledge that the reference is read only in the code
so we should honor that and make is explicit.

SmallString is a very simple utf8 string class. It's purpose is performance.
It uses a short string opimization which provides 31 bytes of heap free
memory to save a 30 bytes long string plus null terminator. If the string
gets larger heap is allocated. The grow strategy is 1.5 to improve reuse
of allocated memory.
It uses optionally constexpr to provide string literals.
