/// This requires and ensures that the string at offset 0 is also the empty
/// string. This helps allow zero-initialized offsets form empty strings and
/// avoids non-zero initialization when using a string literal pointer would
/// allow a null pointer.

/// The primary use case is having a single global string literal for the table
/// contents, and offsets into it in other global data structures to avoid
/// dynamic relocations of individual string literal pointers in those global
/// data structures.
