This is available as Str\length in the www repository.

Returns the length of the given string represented in number of bytes

namespace HH\Lib\Str;

function length(
  string $string,
): int;

This function is O(1): it always returns the number of bytes in the string, even if a byte is null. For example, Str\length("foo\0bar") is 7, not 3.

See Str\length_l() for the length in characters.
