work around GCC#61971 (spurious -Warray-bounds warnings) in folly::FixedString
Summary:
GCC has the temerity to insinuate that my code has out-of-array-bounds access. After cross-checking with clang and ubsan, reviewing the code, and running constexpr tests (for which out-of-range errors are caught at compile time), I can say with pretty high confidence that this is an instance of GCC#61971 (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61971). Basically, the gcc-4 series is known to issue spurious -Warray-bounds warnings. The "fix" is to route internal accesses to some helper functions, for which -Warray-bounds has been suppressed.
User code that accesses elements with operator[] will still warn on out-of-bounds access. If this is a problem in practice, we can suppress the warning there, too. Trying this for now since it is less likely to hide real problems.
