What does this change do?
This PR adds support for custom string types through an opt-in
toml::string_like<T>specialisation (inheritstd::true_typeto enable), as long as it can be convertible fromstd::string/std::string_view, and can be constructed fromconst std::string&/std::string_view(alsostd::string).Is it related to an exisiting bug report or feature request?
While I haven't found any issues specifically requesting support for non-
stdstring types, I suppose #175 is a related issue. The intention is to allow custom string types to be usable with the library, however it must be opt-in (not simply inferred), to prevent things likestd::filesystem::pathfrom being detected as "string-like" (i.e.std::is_convertible_v<std::filesystem::path, std::string_view>).Pre-merge checklist
