Nitpick: Your solutions that use readText validate their input
and the python version probably doesn't. You could mention that
(I cannot comment on SO).
Interestingly readText is faster than byChunck.joiner regardless.
Nitpick 2: http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode7.0.0/ch05.pdf
(chapter 5.8) splitLines is still incomplete, missing to break on
U+0085, U+000B, U+000C. Would a PR for this be accepted?

has not only one of the fastest, but the only correct solution to
this that works with UTF8, UTF16 and UTF32 at the same time.
