(** [to_snake_case s] converts a string to snake_case.
    - Uppercase ASCII letters are converted to lowercase.
    - Word boundaries are detected at transitions from lowercase to uppercase,
      from letter to digit, and at underscores, spaces, or hyphens.
    - All word boundaries are replaced with a single underscore '_'.
    - Multiple consecutive separators are treated as a single underscore.
    - Leading and trailing underscores are removed.
    - If the input is empty, returns the empty string.

    Examples:
    - [to_snake_case "FirstName"] returns ["first_name"]
    - [to_snake_case "HTTPServer"] returns ["http_server"]
    - [to_snake_case "NoHTTPS"] returns ["no_https"]
    - [to_snake_case "GO_PATH"] returns ["go_path"]
    - [to_snake_case "GO PATH"] returns ["go_path"]
    - [to_snake_case "GO-PATH"] returns ["go_path"]
    - [to_snake_case "http2xx"] returns ["http_2xx"]
    - [to_snake_case "HTTP20xOK"] returns ["http_20x_ok"]
    - [to_snake_case "Duration2m3s"] returns ["duration_2m3s"]
    - [to_snake_case "Bld4Floor3rd"] returns ["bld4_floor_3rd"] *)
