Create a string that has the same value as the specified `original` string that uses the specified `basicAllocator` to supply memory. The contents of `original` are moved (in constant time) to the new string if `basicAllocator == original.get_allocator()`, and are copied (in linear time) using `basicAllocator` otherwise. `original` is left in a valid but unspecified state.
