Docs: slice elements are equidistant

Recently, someone asked why `[char]` and `str` are not interchangeable, and I explained that in a slice, the elements must be laid out equidistantly, whereas the chars in a `str` are stored compactly regardless their size. However I couldn't find this documented anywhere, so here's a small addition of this fact.
