Per this thread http://forum.dlang.org/post/jtlj1k$1fdj$1@digitalmars.com , it
was decided to try and go the path of removing opEquals, opCmp, toHash, and
toString from Object, as they don't need to be there, and the fact that they're
there is causing issues with attributes such as const ( issue# 1824 ).

This issue is specifically for toString so that any work towards making it
unnecessary and removing it can be referenced here, whereas the other 3 have
separate bugzilla entries, as the work for them isn't necessarily related to
each other. opEquals, opCmp, and toHash in particular may require substantial
work to be done on the built-in AAs before they can actually be removed from
Object, as the AA implementation is not currently templated like it should be.
