Packed strings.

The newest version!

/**
 * Set of classes used to pack strings in more compact representations.
 * 
 * This is useful when size matters more than speed.
 * 

 * Strings are encoded in UTF-8. The resulting encoding is stored in specific classes:
 * 

 * When the number of bytes is small enough, bytes are stored in fields:
 * {@link cdc.util.pstrings.PackedString8 PackedString8},
 * {@link cdc.util.pstrings.PackedString16 PackedString16}, ...
 * 
Otherwise, bytes are stored in an array: {@link cdc.util.pstrings.PackedStringN PackedStringN}.
 *
