// Package kvfile provides utilities to parse line-delimited key/value files
// such as used for label-files and env-files.
//
// # File format
//
// key/value files use the following syntax:
//
//   - File must be valid UTF-8.
//   - BOM headers are removed.
//   - Leading whitespace is removed for each line.
//   - Lines starting with "#" are ignored.
//   - Empty lines are ignored.
//   - Key/Value pairs are provided as "KEY[=<VALUE>]".
//   - Maximum line-length is limited to [bufio.MaxScanTokenSize].
//
// # Interpolation, substitution, and escaping
//
// Both keys and values are used as-is; no interpolation, substitution or
// escaping is supported, and quotes are considered part of the key or value.
// Whitespace in values (including leading and trailing) is preserved. Given
// that the file format is line-delimited, neither key, nor value, can contain
// newlines.
//
// # Key/Value pairs
//
// Key/Value pairs take the following format:
//
//	KEY[=<VALUE>]
//
// KEY is required and may not contain whitespaces or NUL characters. Any
// other character (except for the "=" delimiter) are accepted, but  it is
// recommended to use a subset of the POSIX portable character set, as
// outlined in [Environment Variables].
//
// VALUE is optional, but may be empty. If no value is provided (i.e., no
// equal sign ("=") is present), the KEY is omitted in the result, but some
// functions accept a lookup-function to provide a default value for the
// given key.
//
