utils: Do not strip trailing nul from wide strings #13

DXC (all the Windows string types using WCHAR under the hood, really) require wide strings to be terminated with a NUL character. If not, they'd use a BSTR that has a sneaky length prefix (#11), otherwise the length or ending of the string is unknown.

This has not caused any trouble before because into_vec performs the exact same conversion as into_vec_with_nul, except that it pops off the last character before returning the Vec. Only the size of it is reduced, the underlying memory is not reallocated and the final NUL byte is left in place. However, in the event that a vector is shuffled around or modified we cannot permit ourselves to loose that trailing NUL.

is left in place.

…of a panic

Not all file loading should be fallible; DXC usually invokes the loader
with multiple paths depending on relative includes, and happily accepts
and expects us to return `-2_147_024_894 // ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND /
0x80070002` for some.  As such the precedent should be to not panic but
let DXC decide if file loading failures should be critical or simply
result in a different path being tested.

In my case though the error seems to originate from DXIL compilation
being largely untested when ran on Linux systems through the WinAadapter
codepath.  In this particular stacktrace below DXC seems to "stat" (get
file information) for the current working directory, and somehow ends up
trying to open the directory as file through our include handler:

This stacktrace originates from the following panic:
