We can try and see if e.g. users of clang have automated checks for `static_assert` in their CI pipelines or something. I think your new format looks better, but Hyrum is finicky that way... What do others think?

I'm sure *someone* is relying on this somewhere, but I'm not worried we're going to break a ton of people -- hopefully enough folks are tracking trunk that we can find any major issues before releasing.

A verbatim NULL is replaced by <U+0000> in the expected-error of a test that checks the handling of null in header-name (!)

  -                          // expected-error at -1 {{'null\^@character' file not found}}
  +                          // expected-error at -1 {{'null\<U+0000>character' file not found}}
