case-by-case basis generally. e.g. methinks now that NaturalStringSorter
should go into i18nutil or there abouts, definitely not sal anyway. Some
of them are just bridges for the old string class, like the pad stuff
and getToken so they probably can stay out. matchL and search/replace
are possible contenders.

The foo_alloc stuff is moved in there from a somewhat confused-in-usage
family of overlapping stuff found in i18npool/i18nutil. StringBuffer's
ctor calls rtl_string_new_WithLength, comment on rtl_string_alloc
describes how it differ's from that, e.g. no memset on contents. Using a
StringBuffer puts you at something of an extra remove over the private
pData in order to tweak its length. Didn't really fancy fighting the
i18npool/i18nutil usages.
