Can we provide a convenience API (or even a few lines of code one could

8-bit string should  have max-char equal to 127 or 255?

Isn't that what this is?

============================================================
 PyObject* PyUnicode_FromKindAndData(
        int kind, const void *buffer, Py_ssize_t size)

    Create a new Unicode object with the given kind (possible
    values are PyUnicode_1BYTE_KIND etc., as returned by
    PyUnicode_KIND()). The buffer must point to an array of
    size units of 1, 2 or 4 bytes per character, as given by
    the kind.
