Rob Pike ec12754700 bufio: fix scanning with a final empty token.
The Scan function's interface to the split function was not sufficient
to handle an empty final token in a pure function; state was required.
This was ugly.

We introduce a special error value that a split function can return
that signals that this token is OK, but is the last one and scanning
should stop immediately _after_ this token.

The same effect could be achieved using the same trick (a special
error value) and checking for that error after Scan finishes, but it's
a little clumsy. Providing a published sentinel value in bufio is
cleaner and means everyone can use the same trick. The result
is an error-free scan.

Rewrite the test (that was only barely working) to use the value
and be more robust.

Also write a new example showing how to do it.

Fixes #11836

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
