Unfortunately not without a lot of effort, the normal C paradigm that
strings are terminated by NULs is used throughout Geany and the
libraries it uses.  It is probable that there are counted versions of
the libraries, but it is a lot of work to find all uses that need to
change and to store counts for every string that is derived from the
file.

It is however something that can happen over time if anyone wanted to
provide a progressive series of PRs that moved the process along.
