[Lakos Rule.](https://quuxplusone.github.io/blog/2018/04/25/the-lakos-rule/) If `__s` is null, or points to a non-null-terminated array, then this overload has UB; whereas the other two overloads never have UB.

No useful opinion from me on making this one noexcept. Personally I can never remember whether vendors are allowed to add `noexcept`, or `constexpr`, or neither. I also don't know if libc++ thinks it's OK to add either keyword if it's not mandated by the standard, because that might be a portability trap for users (they rely on its being noexcept and then their code breaks when they switch to libstdc++ or something).
