Old description:

> Bring Adrian Hey's StringMap library in the collections package.
>
> The interface should be as close a possible to Data.Map, so it can be a
> drop-in replacement in most cases.

New description:

 * Bring Adrian Hey's StringMap to a higher level of completeness, so it
 can be made an instance of the Map class.

  * Add an abstraction layer, as close a possible to Data.Map, so it can be
 a drop-in replacement in most cases.
