-- Efficient construction of lazy @Text@ values.  The principal
-- operations on a @Builder@ are @singleton@, @fromText@, and
-- @fromLazyText@, which construct new builders, and 'mappend', which
-- concatenates two builders.
--
-- To get maximum performance when building lazy @Text@ values using a
-- builder, associate @mappend@ calls to the right.  For example,
-- prefer
--
-- > singleton 'a' `mappend` (singleton 'b' `mappend` singleton 'c')
--
-- to
--
-- > singleton 'a' `mappend` singleton 'b' `mappend` singleton 'c'
--
-- as the latter associates @mappend@ to the left.
