I know.  This commit just refactors the code without making any
functionality changes.  Removing this check and copying the string
unconditionally will introduce a performance hit that can be avoided.

I am working on a patch that fixes this, will submit it soon.  It
introduces a new class, StringRefNulTerminated, that is derived from
StringRef, to explicitly mark nul-terminated strings in the type
system.  I would appreciate your comments on this patch.
