Add a function for building a string, printf style, using a memory pool. It uses the free space in the current block in the first attempt. If that suffices then the result can already be used without copying or reformatting.
For strings that are significantly shorter on average than the block size (ca. 1 MiB by default) this is the case most of the time, leading to a better perfomance than a solution that doesn't access mem-pool internals.
