Convert SetBase arguments to UTF-8 fallibly, so a string containing a surrogate raises UnicodeEncodeError instead of reaching a Rust panic.
Reject embedded NULs before changing the stored base, matching CPython's SetBase argument conversion.
Keep existing valid base and GetBase behavior unchanged. This does not implement external entity base URI resolution.
Verification
Compared with CPython 3.15.0's Modules/clinic/pyexpat.c.h and Modules/pyexpat.c; independently reviewed argument conversion, state preservation, and error ordering.
rustfmt, the normal commit hooks (including cspell), and git diff --check passed.
No local build, RustPython interpreter execution, workspace tests, C-API tests, or clippy were run: the required coordinated native execution guard was unavailable. Hosted CI must validate this exact commit.
Existing canonical test_pyexpat does not directly cover these invalid SetBase inputs; no test files were changed. Wrong-type argument wording is unchanged and may differ from CPython.

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
XML parser base values containing an embedded null character now raise a ValueError. Other base values continue to be stored as before. This makes invalid input produce a clear error instead of being accepted.
Reject embedded NULs and convert base strings to UTF-8 fallibly before storing them, instead of panicking on surrogates.

SetBase now rejects base strings that contain an embedded NUL with ValueError. Valid base strings are stored as before.

Summary
Validate and store base crates/stdlib/src/pyexpat.rs
SetBase accepts a UTF-8 string reference and returns PyResult<()>. It raises ValueError("embedded null character") for strings that contain a NUL. Otherwise, it stores the base as before.
The change rejects embedded NULs without replacing the stored base. No merge-blocking issue is established; regression coverage remains a useful follow-up.

Full details: Title check
Explanation
The title "Validate pyexpat SetBase strings" matches the main change. The raw summary shows set_base now takes a UTF-8 string reference and raises ValueError when the base contains an embedded NUL. The PR objectives add that non-UTF-8-convertible strings (surrogates) now raise UnicodeEncodeError instead of panicking. The title names the right function and the right kind of change, though it does not mention the NUL check or the panic fix. It is concise and specific enough for a teammate scanning history.
Full details: Docstring Coverage
Explanation
Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 1 files.
Resolution
Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Add a regression check for the embedded NUL rejection in SetBase.
set_base rejects a base that contains a NUL, but no test covers this path. If the check were removed, SetBase("bad\0base") would store the NUL-containing base, and GetBase would return it. The existing assertions in stdlib_xml.py would still pass. Add a ValueError assertion for the rejected call, then assert that GetBase still returns the previous base.
🧪 Suggested test addition
for value in (b"example.xml", None, 123):
with assert_raises(TypeError):
parser.SetBase(value)
+with assert_raises(ValueError):+ parser.SetBase("bad\0base")+assert parser.GetBase() == "example.xml"

Review comment at @crates/stdlib/src/pyexpat.rs around lines 1254 - 1255:
Add a regression check in the existing `SetBase` tests that calls `SetBase` with
a NUL-containing string and asserts it raises `ValueError`, then verify
`GetBase` still returns the previously configured base.
