Looks to me like when it receives a single range it expects the
elements of that range to match the type.
Yes, the first overload fails to match because U is inferred as
immutable(char) rather than string:
this(U)(U[] values...)
if (isImplicitlyConvertible!(U, T))
This is because a single array can be passed to a typesafe
variadic parameter rather than elements of that array type. And
then immutable(char) doesn't convert to string.
I think a non-variadic overload could be added to make it work as
expected.
