- substr is Annex B
- substring silently flips its arguments if they're in the "wrong order", which is confusing
- slice is better than sliced bread (no pun intended) and also it works the same way on Arrays so there's less to remember

The old version of prettier we were using didn't support the Flow syntax
to access properties in a type using `SomeType['prop']`. This updates
`prettier` and `rollup-plugin-prettier` to the latest versions.
I added the prettier config `arrowParens: "avoid"` to reduce the diff
size as the default has changed in Prettier 2.0. The largest amount of
changes comes from function expressions now having a space. This doesn't
have an option to preserve the old behavior, so we have to update this.
