Despite the existing test that locks in the allocation behavior, people
really want a benchmark. So:
BenchmarkBuildString_Builder/1Write_NoGrow-4 20000000 60.4 ns/op 48 B/op 1 allocs/op
BenchmarkBuildString_Builder/3Write_NoGrow-4 10000000 230 ns/op 336 B/op 3 allocs/op
BenchmarkBuildString_Builder/3Write_Grow-4 20000000 102 ns/op 112 B/op 1 allocs/op
BenchmarkBuildString_ByteBuffer/1Write_NoGrow-4 10000000 125 ns/op 160 B/op 2 allocs/op
BenchmarkBuildString_ByteBuffer/3Write_NoGrow-4 5000000 339 ns/op 400 B/op 3 allocs/op
BenchmarkBuildString_ByteBuffer/3Write_Grow-4 5000000 316 ns/op 336 B/op 3 allocs/op
I don't think these allocate-as-fast-as-you-can benchmarks are very
interesting because they're effectively just GC benchmarks, but sure.
If one wants to see that there's 1 fewer allocation, there it is. The
ns/op and B/op numbers will change as the built string size changes.

The Builder's ReadFrom method allows the underlying unsafe slice to
escape, and for callers to subsequently modify memory that had been
unsafely converted into an immutable string.
In the original proposal for Builder (#18990), I'd noted there should
be no Read methods:
> There would be no Reset or Bytes or Truncate or Read methods.
> Nothing that could mutate the []byte once it was unsafely converted
> to a string.
And in my prototype (https://golang.org/cl/37767), I handled ReadFrom
properly, but when https://golang.org/cl/74931 arrived, I missed that
it had a ReadFrom method and approved it.
Because we're so close to the Go 1.10 release, just remove the
ReadFrom method rather than think about possible fixes. It has
marginal utility in a Builder anyway.
Also, fix a separate bug that also allowed mutation of a slice's
backing array after it had been converted into a slice by disallowing
copies of the Builder by value.

This is like a write-only subset of bytes.Buffer with an
allocation-free String method.
