P3705R0 A Sentinel for Null-Terminated Strings (Eddie Nolan)

@foonathan - will it be possible to see this paper towards the beginning of the week?
If so that would be great, as we would like to consider it along side other papers which try to address similar issues.

We discussed this in SG9 in Sofia: https://wiki.edg.com/bin/view/Wg21sofia2025/NotesSG9P3705R0 Forwarded to LEWG.

We would like something like the proposed null_sentinel regardless of the addition of a hypothetical unchecked_take_before view that may come in the future.

No objection to unanimous consent.
Attendance: 18

Always pass the iterator by reference to operator==, move null_term to namespace std::views, add a discussion about alternative names, and forward P3705R1 with those changes to LEWG for inclusion in C++29.
