This patch series implements an improvment of the strbuf API, allowing strbuf to use preallocated memory. This makes strbuf fit to be used in performance-critical operations. The first patch is simply a preparatory work, adding tests for existing strbuf implementation. Most of the work is made in the second patch: handle pre-allocated memory, extend the API, document it and test it. As said in the second commit, the idea comes from Michael Haggerty.
