When a character array without a terminating NUL character has a static
initializer, GCC 15's -Wunterminated-string-initialization will only
warn if the array lacks the "nonstring" attribute[1]. Mark the arrays
with __nonstring to and correctly identify the char array as "not a C
string" and thereby eliminate the warning.

Is this an errant inclusion? :-)

Whoops. Rewriting glitch. Yes, "and" should be dropped. I will fix this
locally for all the patches with the same language and send v3 for this
one.

Ah, yeah, I had removed the truncation change but the whitespace change
stuck around. Also fixing!
