Functions
rte_status_t	rte_string_init (rte_string_t *str, char *storage, size_t capacity)
	Binds a string to caller-owned storage. Initial length is 0 (empty string).
rte_status_t	rte_string_clear (rte_string_t *str)
	Resets a string to empty. Capacity and storage are unchanged.
size_t	rte_string_length (const rte_string_t *str)
	Returns a string's current length (not counting a NUL terminator).
rte_status_t	rte_string_c_str (rte_string_t *str, const char **out_cstr)
	Ensures a NUL terminator is present within capacity (without incrementing length) and returns a pointer to the string's storage, suitable for passing to a legacy NUL-terminated-string API.
rte_status_t	rte_string_copy (rte_string_t *dest, const char *src)
	Bounded strcpy equivalent. Never calls strlen(src) - scans for a NUL only up to dest's capacity (REQ-COMMON-STR-002).
rte_status_t	rte_string_copy_n (rte_string_t *dest, const char *src, size_t src_len)
	Bounded copy of an exact-length, not-necessarily-NUL-terminated source (e.g. a length-prefixed field). Never scans src.
rte_status_t	rte_string_concat (rte_string_t *dest, const char *src)
	Bounded strcat equivalent. Never calls strlen(src) - scans for a NUL only up to dest's remaining capacity.
rte_status_t	rte_string_compare (const rte_string_t *a, const rte_string_t *b, int32_t *out_cmp)
	Bounded strcmp equivalent. Compares up to the shorter string's length, then by length if that prefix is equal.
rte_status_t	rte_string_find_char (const rte_string_t *str, char c, bool *out_found, size_t *out_index)
	Bounded strchr equivalent. "Not found" is a normal outcome, not an error - see out_found.
rte_status_t	rte_string_find_substr (const rte_string_t *haystack, const rte_string_t *needle, bool *out_found, size_t *out_index)
	Bounded strstr equivalent. "Not found" is a normal outcome, not an error - see out_found.
rte_status_t	rte_string_split_next (const rte_string_t *str, char delimiter, size_t *io_cursor, rte_const_buffer_t *out_token, bool *out_has_token)
	Reentrant, bounded string splitting - unlike strtok(), all state is caller-owned via io_cursor, so multiple splits can run concurrently on different tasks (ADR-006 section 2.4).

	Bounded base-10 append of a uint32_t to dest's existing content (unlike rte_string_from_u32(), which replaces it). Intended to replace snprintf(buf, n, "...u...", v)-style line assembly with a checked, non-variadic, MISRA-clean primitive (ADR-006).
rte_status_t	rte_string_append_i32 (rte_string_t *dest, int32_t value)
	Bounded base-10 append of an int32_t; a leading '-' is emitted for negative values. See rte_string_append_u32().
