Reverted back to old string implementation. New one needs more work.

+ *  the same functions but uses less memory for administration. This class
+ *  is just a wrapper around a plain C string requiring only 4 bytes "overhead".
+ *  QCString features sharing of data and stores the string length, but 
+ *  requires 4 + 12 bytes for this (even for the empty string). As doxygen 
+ *  uses a LOT of string during a run it saves a lot of memory to use a 
+ *  more memory efficient implementation at the cost of relatively low
