But mostly one or two new functions (one for loads, one for stores) and then
just use it in dozens of different constexpr evaluations of calls (strcmp,
strncmp, memcmp, strspn, strcspn, memcpy, memset, memmove, strcpy, stpcpy,
...).
For loads a question is if it should work like bit_cast to char and for stores
what it should allow the bytes to be stored into.
