* If the token is a [RAW_C_STRING_LITERAL], the represented bytes are the UTF-8 encoding of the literal content.
> **Note**: the permitted forms of [C_STRING_LITERAL] and [RAW_C_STRING_LITERAL] tokens ensure that the represented bytes never include a zero byte.

The expression's value is a reference to a statically allocated [Cstr] whose array of bytes contains the represented bytes followed by a zero byte.
