Issue ID: 18632
Summary: enable use of fromStringz with char[n]
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1

i.e.
```
char[40] cString;
auto someString = cString.fromStringz();
assert((someString.length >= 0) && (someString.length <= 40));
```
This would behave more like strnlen than strlen, and would be particularly
useful when the maximum size of the string is known ahead of time.
This would possibly also have the benefit of being @safe and pure.
