I'll make a few more adjustments here based on Zachary's feedback.

If llvm::StringRef at global scope does not incur a global constructor, that's fine.  If it does, we are prevented from adding global constructors within our products except on a special-case basis.  This would not pass that mark.

Easy enough for me to try, though.  I'll check.

Yep, that looks great.  Thanks!

It's not clear to me what the lifetime is of the packet message content and how that interplays with a StringRef.  I was under the impression that a StringRef will assume the backing store hangs around.  That sounds like a recipe for potential invalid memory access?  I'll check the code, though.  It may be totally fine based on how the packet content is handled.

Yep.  I'd prefer to not make that part of this change, though.
