Re: https://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1834#c6820:

We heard last week that the C committee is currently planning to call the
array a string even when the bytes in the array do not contain a NUL byte.

I think we should suggest new wording to them to avoid both the wording
they are planning to use and the wording currently in POSIX.
