As a followup to this: I've added additional test cases and a minor change to the AST matchers to catch another form of the `-Wbraced-scalar-init` pattern.

This: `accepts_string_view({{}});`

This pattern will select the `const CharT*` constructor overload and then value-initialize the argument, causing a null deref. It happens to not include the `nullptr` literal but it has the exact same effect as `accepts_string_view(nullptr);` and `accepts_string_view({nullptr});`
