When mLength == 0, AppendLiteral() ends up calling AssignLiteral(). This is bad if SetCapacity() was called before AppendLiteral() and the caller in good faith assumed that SetCapacity() before a sequence of appends is OK.

AppendLiteral() should not call AssignLiteral() if mLength == 0 and the string already has a shared buffer.
