When reading the key, we should use a constructor which validates incoming
UTF-8 rather than Str_new_steal_from_trusted_str because we don't know (and
therefore don't "trust") the origin of the bytes we're deserializing.

Now that the code pattern above appears in quite a few places, we should also consider a new method like:

incremented String*
InStream_Read_Utf8(InStream *self, size_t len);
