  /**
   * Returns a SafeHtml constructed from a safe string, i.e. without escaping
   * the string.
   *
   * <p>
   * <b>Important</b>: For this method to be able to honor the {@link SafeHtml}
   * contract, all uses of this method must satisfy the following constraints:
   *
   * <ol>
   *
   * <li>The argument expression must be fully determined at compile time.
   *
   * <li>The value of the argument must end in "inner HTML" context and not
   * contain incomplete HTML tags. I.e., the following is not a correct use of
   * this method, because the {@code <a>} tag is incomplete:
   *
   * <pre class="code">
   * {@code shb.appendConstantHtml("<a href='").append(url)}</pre>
   *
   * </ol>
   *
   * <p>
   * The first constraint provides a sufficient condition that the argument (and
   * any HTML markup contained in it) originates from a trusted source. The
   * second constraint ensures the composability of {@link SafeHtml} values.
   *
   * <p>
   * When executing client-side in hosted mode, or server side with assertions
   * enabled, the argument is HTML-parsed and validated to satisfy the second
   * constraint (the server-side check can also be enabled programmatically, see
   * {@link SafeHtmlHostedModeUtils#maybeCheckCompleteHtml(String)} for
   * details). For performance reasons, this check is not performed in prod mode
   * on the client, and with assertions disabled on the server.
   *
   * @param s the string to be wrapped as a {@link SafeHtml}
   * @return {@code s}, wrapped as a {@link SafeHtml}
   * @throws IllegalArgumentException if not running in prod mode and {@code
   *           html} violates the second constraint
