This may feel like outside the scope of this series, but since this series will be the main culprit for adding many new functions to this API in the recent history...
- We may want to name things a bit more consistently so that people can tell which ones can be called on any string list, which ones are sorted list only, and which ones are unsorted one only.
In addition, the last category _may_ need a bit more thought. Calling unsorted_string_list_lookup() on an already sorted list is not a crime---it is just a stupid thing to do.
- Why are these new functions described at the top, not appended at the bottom? I would have expected either an alphabetical, or a more generic ones first (i.e. print and clear are a lot "easier" ones compared to filter and prefix that are very much more specialized).
