gsl::zstring vs gsl::zstring<>

[grische]

Hallo,
I am rather new here and while reading through the first pages, I got really confused when I tried using the zstring you keep on mentioning.
It took me a while that gsl::zstring is actually not a valid type with GSL, but gsl::zstring<> is: microsoft/GSL#249

Is the usage of zstring instead of zstring<> intentional? Am I missing here something?

Thank you! Note that this will be a breaking change if we rename this, but it's not standardized yet.

@grische I recognize that many people (including myself) find this syntax confusing and annoying. We're looking at the right way to remove the need for it without losing the ability to have fixed-length zstring objects. Changing this will break some users so we'd like to do so thoughtfully.
