[swift-evolution] [Draft proposal] Faster/lower-level external String initialization

[Zach Waldowski]

Since this seems to have gone quiet, and the code was already done, I've

   https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/1109

The existing proposal PR:

   https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/pull/101

Sincerely,
