    safety, this function might perform a heap allocation, so using it

    @note One potential pitfall when using this function happens when calling
    c_ptr_safe() on a String object from the parser. In this case the internal
    m_ptr string is already allocated on a MEM_ROOT and is cleaned up as part of
    the query lifecycle. This cleanup is performed by simply clearing the
    MEM_ROOT (freeing its allocated memory) and does not involve destructing the
    String object. So in the case when the parser works with (ptr, length)-style
    strings that are placed in String objects and m_length = m_allocated_length
    we get a heap allocation when calling c_ptr_safe(), even if just to read the
    contents of the string, and this newly allocated memory is not on the same
    MEM_ROOT as the original string, and thus we get a memory leak if we do not
    make sure to free it.
