Expected Behavior

When attempting to use geode::utils::string::replace on an empty string, the code should return the empty string as there is nothing to replace.

Actual Behavior

Instead, it hangs. No crashes, just hangs on this single line of code.

Steps to Reproduce

1. use geode::utils::string::replace where the original string is blank

could not reproduce the issue with the input string being blank, but if the orig parameter was blank, the function would indeed loop forever and hang. fixed in 4d5e465
