IMHO the `chop` function would be helpful when fine-tuning string
extraction operations through stellar (E.g. when extracting specific variations
of hostnames or URLs).
Aside of that, I went ahead and added the `chomp` string function as well
since I agree that it would be of use.

> - chop -> Remove the last character from a String.
> - prependifmissing -> Prepends the prefix to the start of the string if the
> string does not already start with any of the prefixes.
> - appendifmissing -> Appends the suffix to the end of the string if the
> string does not already end with any of the suffixes.
> - countmatches -> Counts how many times the substring appears in the larger
> string.
