Rather than the very C-like API we currently have, accepting a void* and
a length, let's take a Bytes object instead. In almost all existing
cases, the compiler figures out the length.
This is not guaranteed to always work correctly as ArgsParser deals in
StringViews and might have a non-properly-null-terminated string as a
value. As a bonus, using StringView (and DeprecatedString where
necessary) leads to nicer looking code too :^)
Having an alias function that only wraps another one is silly, and
keeping the more obvious name should flush out more uses of deprecated
strings.
No behavior change.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
StringView was used where possible. Some utilities still use libc
functions which expect null-terminated strings, so String objects were
used there instead.
Previously useradd would not check if a username already existed on the
system, and would instead add the user anyway and just increment the
uid. useradd should instead return an error when the user attempts to
create already existing users.
