Personally I think it was a mistake providing unsafe APIs by
default. If
I would have had it my way, I would introduce:
byLine -> safe, doesn't reuse a buffer
byLineBuffer -> reuses a buffer
No. Too much breakage.

From the docs it appears as array() will handle the required
copying.
std.array.array doc:
---
Returns a newly-allocated dynamic array consisting of a copy of
the input range, static array, dynamic array, or class or struct
with an opApply function r. Note that narrow strings are handled
as a special case in an overload.
---
std.stdio.byLine doc:
---
Returns an input range set up to read from the file handle one
line at a time.
The element type for the range will be Char[]. Range primitives
may throw StdioException on I/O error.
Note:
Each front will not persist after popFront is called, so the
caller must copy its contents (e.g. by calling to!string) if
retention is needed.
