FFIString

This is a small crate for moving strings across extern "C", giving FFI-safe version of String and &str

NOTE: You should also check out Abi Stable, which I didn't know about when I made this crate

This crate provides two types: FFIString and FFIStr

These work just like String and &'a str, but with #[repr(C)]

Why?

I'm trying to make a game engine that loads game code at runtime, and I want both sides to be written in Rust. Without extern "C", both sides would need to be compiled with the exact same version of rustc, so I need an FFI-safe way to pass around String and &str

If you have any ideas on how this can be improved, please submit an issue on the repository
