[PATCH] D39762: [ObjC] Boxed strings should use the nullability from stringWithUTF8String's return type

arphaman created this revision.

Objective-C NSString has a class method `stringWithUTF8String` that creates a new NSString from a C string. Objective-C box expression `@(...)` can be used to create an NSString instead of invoking the `stringWithUTF8String` method directly (The compiler lowers it down to the invocation though). This patch ensures that the type of `@(string-value)` gets the same nullability attributes as the return type of `stringWithUTF8String` to ensure that the diagnostics are consistent between the two.
