Swift 2.3 and 3 support

[tiferrei]

Hello there,

I would like to know if someone's already working on updating this library, and if not if you intend to, I would also like to help in this.

Thank you, tiferrei

Would be great to have Swift 3 support now that the GM version of Xcode 8 is out. Any news on this?

[tiferrei]

Yes @amayne and @jlaws, I believe now that Xcode 8 was released with a stable version of Swift 3 it would be a good time to update.

Tried converting it to Swift 3 myself, it's a nightmare. The automatic conversion in XCode 8 totally fails, and pretty much everything having to do with Strings has changed. Would need to basically manually rewrite it.

@n13 Why are you still worrying about converting? Just use https://github.com/iamjono/SwiftString

@matthijs2704 so I have to install the SwiftString before yours? after I have installed your repo and I neither haven't seen the SwiftString files nor can't import SwiftString into my class.

@abellee I have the same problem after successfully installing the 'String+Extensions', the files are not showing in xcode. Also I can't import the SwiftString in classes, but the files are installed I can find them with the file explorer.
