/// A macro for [`CStr`] literals.
///
/// This can make passing string literals to rustix APIs more efficient, since
/// most underlying system calls with string arguments expect NUL-terminated
/// strings, and passing strings to rustix as `CStr`s means that rustix doesn't
/// need to copy them into a separate buffer to NUL-terminate them.
///
/// [`CStr`]: crate::ffi::CStr
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// # #[cfg(feature = "fs")]
/// # fn main() -> rustix::io::Result<()> {
/// use rustix::cstr;
/// use rustix::fs::{statat, AtFlags, CWD};
///
/// let metadata = statat(CWD, cstr!("Cargo.toml"), AtFlags::empty())?;
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
/// # #[cfg(not(feature = "fs"))]
/// # fn main() {}
