This patch removes the method `convert(::Type{String}, ::Kind)` used for
converting kinds to strings and replaces it with the already existing
method of `Base.string`. There are two reason for this: i) the method
causes invalidations when loading the package and ii) `convert` is
called implicitly in e.g. constructors and should therefore typically
only be defined between similar enough types.

This seems worth doing to me. julia> push!(["a"], K"=")
2-element Vector{String}:
