This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
This commit moves the length calculations out to be directly on the
StringView users. This is an important step towards the goal of removing
StringView(char const*), as it moves the responsibility of calculating
the size of the string to the user of the StringView (which will prevent
naive uses causing OOB access).

(Plus some manual reviewing.)
Let's pick ArgsParser as an example:
outln(file, m_general_help);
This will fail at runtime if the general help happens to contain braces.
Even if this transformation turns out to be unnecessary in a place or
two, this way the code is "more obviously" correct.
Since this is always set to true on the non-default constructor and
subsequently never modified, it is somewhat pointless. Furthermore,
there are arguably no invalid relative paths.
Problem:
- Function local `constexpr` variables do not need to be
`static`. This consumes memory which is unnecessary and can prevent
some optimizations.
Solution:
- Remove `static` keyword.

According to the Single UNIX Specification, Version 2 that's where
those macros should be defined. This fixes the libiconv port.
This also fixes some (but not all) build errors for the diffutils and nano ports.
