Subject: [PATCH] Support for std::string_view in proxy_base
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Allows code like the following to work:
```cpp
std::string_view pretty_name = my_table["pretty_name"];
```

Otherwise it fails with:

```
error: conversion from ‘sol::table_proxy<sol::basic_table_core<false, sol::basic_reference<false> >&, std::tuple<const char (&)[12]> >’ to non-scalar type ‘std::string_view’ {aka ‘std::basic_string_view<char>’} requested
 2131 |                         std::string_view psvPrettyName = tTable["pretty_name"];
      |
```
