/**
* Provide an addition operator between strings and string_views
* Provide an addition operator between `std::string` and `std::string_view`
* inexplicably omitted from the standard library.
*
* > The reason for this is given in n3512 string_ref: a non-owning reference
* to a string, revision 2 by Jeffrey Yasskin:
* >
* > > I also omitted operator+(basic_string, basic_string_ref) because LLVM
* > > returns a lightweight object from this overload and only performs the
* > > concatenation lazily. If we define this overload, we'll have a hard time
* > > introducing that lightweight concatenation later.
