std::string_view doesn't work either in C++17; it requires constructor (5) in

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string_view/basic_string_view

that was added in C++20.

boost::string_view can be made to work by the addition of a constructor
that takes two pointers to char, like this

https://github.com/boostorg/core/blob/12f5f51427fbc9d27f56e5de002b0008fea420c9/include/boost/core/detail/string_view.hpp#L364-L368
