I'm serious. Please provide a way to obtain a `char const*` instead of
std::string_view; that could take the form of a consteval magic function
taking the std::string_view returned from the official API.

Since the compiler will not want to be married to a particular stdlib,
its internal primitives are not going to be creating std::string_views
anyway.
