+ * plus a plain `\n` split, as a drop-in replacement for
+ * `for await (const line of readline.createInterface({ input, crlfDelay: Infinity }))`.
+ *
+ * readline runs an expensive Unicode line-break regex (`\r?\n | \r | U+2028 | U+2029`)
+ * and extra stream/string-decoder machinery on every chunk. JSONL is strictly
+ * newline-delimited, so a plain `\n` split is cheaper and more correct here: it will
+ * not split on a bare `\r` or a Unicode line/paragraph separator that appears *inside*
+ * a JSON string value, which readline would.
+ *
+ * The stream is opened with utf8 encoding, so the runtime's StringDecoder reassembles
+ * multi-byte characters that straddle a chunk boundary before we split - string
+ * concatenation + `indexOf('\n')` is therefore safe.
+ *
+ * Semantics match the readline loop the callers replace:
+ * - every line is yielded IN ORDER, INCLUDING empty lines (so callers tracking a
+ *   1-based line number stay correct);
+ * - a trailing `\r` (from a CRLF ending) is stripped, exactly as readline does;
+ * - a final line with no trailing newline is still yielded;
+ * - breaking/returning out of the `for await` destroys the underlying stream via the
+ *   generator's `finally`.
