Subject: Implement substring removal function
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5ee2d0c363636997c75922bc995029b120c36e72;p=neomutt

Implement substring removal function

Implemented a method that removes all instances of a substring from a
given string. The method has protections against trying to remove a
non-existent substring.
