[phobos] std.string.format

[kenji hara]

It is an old feature.
I've proposed to replace it like your snippet, but it was rejected,
because of the breaking backward compatibility.
Today we (at least I and Andrei) agree with adding new functions, but
their names are still debatable.

See the discussion in here.

We'll welcome your comments.
