30b40bf7b1 db: make bytes even more distinct from sstring
bytes and sstring are distinct types, since their internal buffers are of
different length, but bytes_view is an alias of sstring_view, which makes
it possible of objects of different types to leak across the abstraction
boundary.

Fix this by making bytes a basic_sstring<int8_t, ...> instead of using char.
int8_t is a 'signed char', which is a distinct type from char, so now
bytes_view is a distinct type from sstring_view.

uint8_t would have been an even better choice, but that diverges from Origin
and would have required an audit.
