Enforce the use of String.slice() over String.substr() and String.substring().

String.slice() is preferred over String.substr() and String.substring() because it is a more popular option with clearer behavior, and it has a consistent counterpart in arrays.

Note that String.substr, String.substring and String.slice are not identical when arguments are passed. For detailed differences, refer to the MDN documentation:
