Expand description

Retrieves a string from an FFI function that returns an owned C string pointer allocated by Swift (typically via strdup), freeing it with acf_free_string.

This is a thin convenience over doom_fish_utils::ffi_string::ffi_string_owned.

ยงSafety

The caller must ensure the returned pointer was allocated by the apple-cf Swift bridge (so that acf_free_string correctly releases it). See the underlying helper for full safety contract.
