   * Win32 API extensively uses wchar_t, which is represented by a separated
   * builtin type than char16_t per spec. It's not the case for MSVC prior to
   * MSVC 2015, but other compilers follow the spec. We want to mix wchar_t and
   * char16_t on Windows builds. This class is supposed to make it easier. It
   * stores char16_t const pointer, but provides implicit casts for wchar_t as
   * well. On other platforms, we simply use
   * |typedef const char16_t* char16ptr_t|. Here, we want to make the class as
   * similar to this typedef, including providing some casts that are allowed
   * by the typedef.
