Minor suggestion on the wording,

You strike the mapping of non-basic source code characters to
universal-character-name, including the cross-reference to such
mappings reverting in raw string literals (5.4). I suggest making
a matching edit to strike the reference in (5.4)p3 as well, so that
the only thing reverted is line splicing in phase 2.

That said, with these changes, I am curious what the difference
is between a u8 string literal and a plain ‘char’ string literal, as
the contents of that literal are now going to be unicode source
Text (rather than requesting a mapping from source to unicode
of literal’s contents)?
