This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

Previously we assumed a default precision of 6, which made the printed
values quite odd in some cases.
This commit changes that default to print them with just enough
precision to produce the exact same float when roundtripped.
This commit adds some new tests that assert exact format outputs, which
have to be modified if we decide to change the default behaviour.
There were 2 issues with the way we formatted floating point decimals:
if the part after the decimal point exceeded the max of an u64 we would
generate wildly incorrect decimals, and we applied no rounding.
With this new code, we emit decimals one by one and perform a simple
reverse string walk to round the number up if required.
`vformat()` can now accept format specifiers of the form
{:'[numeric-type]}. This will output a number with a comma separator
every 3 digits.
For example:
`dbgln("{:'d}", 9999999);` will output 9,999,999.
Binary, octal and hexadecimal numbers can also use this feature, for
example:
`dbgln("{:'x}", 0xffffffff);` will output ff,fff,fff.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
This isn't a complete conversion to ErrorOr<void>, but a good chunk.
The end goal here is to propagate buffer allocation failures to the
caller, and allow the use of TRY() with formatting functions.
When I added this code in 1472f6d, I forgot to add tests for it. That's
why I didn't realize that the values were appended to the wrong
FormatBuilder object, so an empty string was returned instead of the
expected "nan"/"inf". This made debugging some FPU issues with the
ScummVM port significantly more difficult.
The state of the formatter for the previous element should be thrown
away for each iteration. This showed up when trying to format a
Vector<String>, since Formatter<StringView> was unhappy about some state
that gets set when it's called. Add a test for Formatter<Vector>.
