NAME
       firestring_estr_chug - remove whitespace from the beginning of an estring

SYNOPSIS
       #include <firestring.h>
       -lfirestring

       void firestring_estr_chug(struct firestring_estr_t *string)

DESCRIPTION
       firestring_estr_chug shortens string by moving the start forward until the string begins with a non-whitespace character or is empty.

CAVEATS
       This  function moves the starting pointer inside string.  If string was allocated with firestring_estr_alloc(3), (as opposed to constructed
       manually pointing inside other memory), future calls to firestring_estr_free(3) will fail if this function trimmed any space from the start
       of the string.  In these cases, use firestring_estr_ip_chug(3) instead.

RETURN VALUE
       None.
