Issue 8733: Suggest `str.lines` when splitting at hard-coded newlines

Fixes #8733.
```
changelog: [`splitting_strings_at_newlines`]: New lint that suggests `str.lines` over splitting at hard-coded newlines
```

This is my first PR to Clippy and one of my first Rust PRs in general -- please feel free to nitpick, I'm thankful for any opportunity to learn! I'd be especially interested in feedback to the following points:

* Is checking for `'\n'`, `"\n"`, and `"\r\n"` as arguments to `split` enough, or should we do more (e.g. checking for constants that have those values if that is possible)?
* Could the code be written in a more idiomatic way?
* Is the default `".."` for `snippet` a good choice? I copied it from other uses of `snippet` in the code base, but I'm not entirely sure.
* Is the category `suspicious` a good choice?
* Is the suggestion applicability `MaybeIncorrect` a good choice? I used it because the return type of `lines` is not exactly the same as that of `split`.

/// Checks for usages of `str.trim().split("\n")` and `str.trim().split("\r\n")`.
///
/// ### Why is this bad?
///
/// Hard-coding the line endings makes the code less compatible. `str.lines` should be used instead.

/// ### Example
/// ```no_run

/// Use instead:
/// ```no_run

///
/// This lint cannot detect if the split is intentionally restricted to a single type of newline (`"\n"` or
/// `"\r\n"`), for example during the parsing of a specific file format in which precisely one newline type is
/// valid.
