Lean on Humanizer for standard string helpers; drop duplicates #356
Description
Tier 2 — Consolidate. src/Fallout.Utilities/Text/String.* (~250 LOC) includes helpers that overlap Humanizer — already referenced (v3.0.1): String.Capitalize.cs (→ Pascalize/Transform), String.Truncate.cs (→ Truncate), String.Indent.cs.
Action
Delegate the standard string ops to Humanizer; delete the redundant helpers.
Keep (domain-specific — do NOT delete)
String.Split.cs+String.KnownWords.cs— camelCase/known-word splitting that drives CLI parameter naming. No Humanizer equivalent.String.Quoting.cs— build/CLI-specific quoting.
⚠️ Breaking change
Public extension methods → breaking-change, experimental, batched to yearly major, CHANGELOG migration note. [Obsolete] forwarders where practical.
Acceptance
-
Capitalize/Truncate/Indentdelegate to or are replaced by Humanizer - Domain-specific splitting/quoting retained
- CHANGELOG entry + migration note

Insights from a discarded prototype (old paths; map to onion structure after #359).
Capitalize->[Obsolete]forwarder toTransform(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, To.SentenceCase). SentenceCase matches the old behavior (upper first char, keep the rest). Keep it: public surface + has Cake callers.Truncate/Indent(string overloads): zero non-test callers -> delete. Caution: Humanizer'sTruncatehas different ellipsis semantics, but nothing depends on it.CustomFileWriter.Indent()(different method, returns IDisposable).
