read file as lines
Return the contents of the file named path.
The file contents are returned as a list of lines. Trailing LF and CRLF character sequences are *not* returned.
Note that this function cannot correctly handle binary files (specifically, files containing "\0" character which is treated as end of string). For those you need to use the read_file function and split the buffer into lines yourself.
Parameters:

Returns:

an array of returned strings, or NULL on error |
