Box<str> is an immutable heap-allocated string slice.
This PR makes it more convenient to use them in labels for example.

Before this PR

let text: Box<str> = "Hello".into();
ui.label(text.into_string());

let text_ref: &Box<str> = &"Hello".into();
ui.label(text_ref.clone().into_string());
// or
ui.label(text_ref.as_ref());
// or
ui.label(&**text_ref);

After this PR

let text: Box<str> = "Hello".into();
ui.label(text);

let text_ref: &Box<str> = &"Hello".into();
ui.label(text_ref);
