 configure the global metatable for string type to be `{ __index = string }`, where `string` here is the global string function table, containing methods such as `format` and `sub`.
 
 This is necessary to support method calls[^1] on string objects, such as `("%d"):format(42)`. As a byproduct of metatable lookup rules, it also means that using a key that doesn't
