appending a null to a string for toStringz
Do you mean appending an ASCII NUL character 0x00 to a string
to make it C language friendly?
yes
I'm a bit obsessive-compulsive of the difference between null
(pointer) and NUL, the first ASCII character.
As far as your example, escaping to the heap is one approach.
Another is to make a copy of the slice, then append NUL character.
