/**
 * Transforms the elements in the given array to strings using the given
 * selector. Joins the produced strings into one using the given `separator`
 * and applying the given `prefix` and `suffix` to the whole string afterwards.
 * If the array could be huge, you can specify a non-negative value of `limit`,
 * in which case only the first `limit` elements will be appended, followed by
 * the `truncated` string. Returns the resulting string.
 *
 * @example
 * ```ts
 * import { joinToString } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/collections/join_to_string.ts";
 * import { assertEquals } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/assert/assert_equals.ts";
 *
 * const users = [
 *   { name: "Kim" },
 *   { name: "Anna" },
 *   { name: "Tim" },
 * ];
 *
 * const message = joinToString(users, (it) => it.name, {
 *   suffix: " are winners",
 *   prefix: "result: ",
 *   separator: " and ",
 *   limit: 1,
 *   truncated: "others",
 * });
 *
 * assertEquals(message, "result: Kim and others are winners");
 * ```
