Prefer String.slice over the legacy String.substring operation

stylewarningsuggested fixmodule

String.substring swaps reversed bounds and clamps negative bounds, which differs from collection slicing. Instead, you SHOULD use String.slice for the same start-inclusive, end-exclusive convention as arrays.

Review negative or dynamically ordered bounds because slice preserves their direction and interprets negative values from the end.
