Issue Description:

Creating a String from a StaticString is a full-width initialization—there should be a String.init(_: StaticString) initializer so one doesn't need to fall back to String.init(describing:).

Note: This has sort of already been approved in SE-0089, since StaticString is one of the types listed under LosslessStringConvertible. As far as I can tell, however, StaticString can't actually conform to LosslessStringConvertible, since it's... static.

You're right about why we can't go through a `LosslessStringConvertible` conformance - the proposal should be amended to remove that from the list.

@milseman: starter bug? Wouldn't need to go through -evolution, right?

Look like a good starter bug. Not sure about needing swift-evo. @airspeedswift?
