def ceil_char_boundary(
    raw_bytes: bytes,
    offset: int
) - > int

Finds the nearest character boundary at or after a given byte offset in a UTF-8 encoded byte string. This ensures that slicing operations do not split multi-byte characters, preventing encoding errors.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
raw_bytes	bytes	The UTF-8 encoded byte sequence to be indexed.
offset	int	The starting byte position from which to search for the next valid character boundary.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The byte index of the first character boundary that is greater than or equal to the provided offset.
