[New-bugs-announce] [issue14957] Improve docs for str.splitlines

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:

The docs for str.splitlines() should explain:

1. That it uses the universal newlines approach to splitting lines
2. That unlike str.split() a trailing empty line is *not* included in the resulting list
