char8_tas a byte-like type, which in turn enables C++20std::u8stringandstd::u8string_view(aliases forstd::basic_string<char8_t>andstd::basic_string_view<char8_t>) objects to be passed in as spans. Right now, simdutf fails to compile if users pass these objects.cppreference states (emphasis mine):
This is enabled in >=C++20 only, and it won't affect older versions.
