More bug 460020: lots of string optimizations inhibited for string
subclasses, all "the usual" ones (slicing etc), plus replace, translate,
ljust, rjust, center and strip. I don't know how to be sure they've all
been caught.
Question: Should we complain if someone tries to intern an instance of
a string subclass? I hate to slow any code on those paths.
