Allow indexing string slice type (#35581)

**Description:** Allow indexing string slice type. I can also add
support for other types such as []int if needed. Let me know if this
approach is good enough.

I haven't found a more generic solution, thank you for any feedback.

**Link to tracking Issue:** Fixes  #29441

**Testing:** Unit test

**Documentation:**
