feat(common): add utility class Strings with replaceAll

This is a method that is used pretty often but not included in the Javascript language itself. What the method does is what you would expect, it finds all occurrences of a substring and replaces all of them with another one. The deafult Javascript String.replace function only does this with the first occurrence by default so it is not a good solution. Signed-off-by: Peter Somogyvari <[email protected]>
