Add arbitrary string type to the native object API (#4218)

Browse Source 
* Custom strings are very common for optimizations around small objects
  or growth style optimizations, i.e.: grow at 1.57 times vs doubling vs..

  A second common strategy is to cooperate w/ the memory allocator
  see FBString[1] and seastar[2] string for examples.
