`strings.Lines` — added in Go 1.24

- `func Lines(s string) iter.Seq[string]`
- Lazily yields successive newline-terminated substrings of `s`. *Includes* the exact trailing `\n`/`\r\n`; if the input ends without a newline the final element is unterminated.
- Zero copying: each value is just a slice header into `s`, so iteration is O(1) memory.

Idiomatic loop:

```go
for line := range strings.Lines(buf) {
    handle(line)
}
```

### How it differs from common alternatives

- strings.Split – eager `[]string` allocation; caller chooses the separator (newline usually `"\n"`); separator *removed*, so you lose information about line endings and trailing newline presence.
- strings.SplitSeq – same lazy `iter.Seq[string]` style as `Lines`, but again the caller supplies the separator and it is dropped; use this for arbitrary delimiters.
- bufio.Scanner – token-oriented reader for any `io.Reader`. Default split function treats `\n` as the delimiter and strips it, so newline bytes are not preserved. Each token is copied into new memory, and there is a 64 KiB default token-size cap (adjustable). Scanner is the choice when the data is coming from a stream rather than an in-memory string.

Use `strings.Lines` by default when the data is already in a string. (bytes.Lines provides the []byte equivalent.)

Fallback to `Split` if you need a slice of lines in memory, to `SplitSeq` for lazy iteration over other separators, and to `bufio.Scanner` for streaming input where newline bytes are irrelevant.
