If I want std.string.toStringz to put the result into a temporary stack
buffer your solution doesn't help at all. Passing an ouput range,
allocator or buffer would all solve this.
I don't understand, why wouldn't you be able to temporarily set the
thread-local allocator to use the stack buffer, and restore it once done?
That's doable, but you don't get to place the string at a _specific_
buffer. -- Andrei
