reduce `single_char_pattern` to only lint on ascii chars
This should mostly fix the `single_char_pattern` lint, because with a single byte, the optimizer will usually see through the char-to-string-expansion and single loop iteration. This fixes#11675 and #8111.
Update: As per the meeting on November 28th, 2023, we voted to also downgrade the lint to pedantic.
