[issue32745] ctypes string pointer fields should accept embedded null characters

[Eryk Sun]

Eryk Sun <eryksun at gmail.com> added the comment:

PyUnicode_AsWideCharString was updated to raise ValueError for embedded nulls if the `size` output parameter is NULL. Z_set in cfield.c should be updated to get the size, which can be ignored here. For example:

    Py_ssize_t size; 
    buffer = PyUnicode_AsWideCharString(value, &size);
