    libstdc++: Add Doxygen comment for string::resize_and_overwite
    
    This is a complicated API that should be clearly documented.
    
    Also improve the comment on basic_ios::_M_setstate.
    
    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
    
            * include/bits/basic_ios.h (basic_ios::_M_setstate): Add
            caveat to comment.
            * include/bits/basic_string.h (resize_and_overwrite): Add
            doxygen comment.

+      /** Resize the string and call a function to fill it.
+       *
+       * @param __n   The maximum size requested.
+       * @param __op  A callable object that writes characters to the string.
+       *
+       * This is a low-level function that is easy to misuse, be careful.
+       *
+       * Calling `str.resize_and_overwrite(n, op)` will reserve at least `n`
+       * characters in `str`, evaluate `n2 = std::move(op)(str.data(), n)`,
+       * and finally set the string length to `n2` (adding a null terminator
+       * at the end). The function object `op` is allowed to write to the
+       * extra capacity added by the initial reserve operation, which is not
+       * allowed if you just call `str.reserve(n)` yourself.
+       *
+       * This can be used to efficiently fill a `string` buffer without the
+       * overhead of zero-initializing characters that will be overwritten
+       * anyway.
+       *
+       * The callable `op` must not access the string directly (only through
+       * the pointer passed as its first argument), must not write more than
+       * `n` characters to the string, must return a value no greater than `n`,
+       * and must ensure that all characters up to the returned length are
+       * valid after it returns (i.e. there must be no uninitialized values
+       * left in the string after the call, because accessing them would
+       * have undefined behaviour). If `op` exits by throwing an exception
+       * the behaviour is undefined.
+       *
