dupe of https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18472 (see comment 10).

@JMDavies the problem is not that you can't `put(buf, "hello");`
but that formattedWrite does not force that to happen. Irrespective of the
intricacies of unicode and auto decoding 
---
char[] buf = new char[100];
buf.formattedWrite("This is a number: %s", 5); // Error cannot put a
const(char)[] into a char[]
---

should work.
