will call readline a maximum of twice, and return the encoding used
    (as a string) and a list of any lines (left as bytes) it has read
    in.

    It detects the encoding from the presence of a utf-8 bom or an encoding
    cookie as specified in pep-0263. If both a bom and a cookie are present, but
    disagree, a SyntaxError will be raised. If the encoding cookie is an invalid
    charset, raise a SyntaxError.  Note that if a utf-8 bom is found,
    'utf-8-sig' is returned.

    If no encoding is specified, then the default of 'utf-8' will be returned.
