   …ll strings.
   
   ### Rationale for this change
   Fixes GH-49034.
   The binary_string funcion will attempt to allocate 0 bytes of memory, which 
results in a null ptr being returned and the function interprets that as an 
error.
   
   ### What changes are included in this PR?
   Add kCanReturnErrors to the function definition to match other string 
functions. 
   Move the check for 0 byte length input earlier in the binary_string function 
to prevent the 0 allocation.
   Add a unit test.
   
   ### Are these changes tested?
   Yes, unit and integration testing.
   
   ### Are there any user-facing changes?
   No.
