is per default created with permissions 0755 by the socket-unit.
However this is considered unsafe since commit [1], so enhance unit
example with systemd configuration directive `DirectoryMode=' to
create it with safe permissions, see
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.socket.html#DirectoryMode=
[1] 2003-04-12 "(server-socket-name): Use new safe location for socket."

When creating multibyte or unibyte strings, we should guarantee the
following invariants:
- When creating empty strings, a NULL data pointer should be allowed.
This often arises in practice if the string length isn't known in
advance, and we don't want to unnecessarily trigger undefined
behavior. Since functions like memcpy might not accept NULL
pointers, use the canonical empty string objects in this case.
- Nonzero strings should be guaranteed to be unique and mutable.
These are the same guarantees expected from Lisp functions such as
'make-string' or 'unibyte-string'. On the other hand, empty strings
might not be unique.
