[ruby-core:120417] [Ruby master Bug#20526] File.open(encoding: "bom|utf-8") converts "\r\n" to "\n" on Windows

Issue #20526 has been updated by YO4 (Yoshinao Muramatsu).


There are similar strangeness around an encoding specifiers.

preparations
```ruby
RUBY_VERSION # => "3.3.5"
File.write("a.txt", "a\r\n")
File.binread("a.txt").bytes # => [97, 13, 13, 10]
```
experimentations
```ruby
File.open("a.txt")                         {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 13, 10] # expected(msvcrt[_*] newline)
File.open("a.txt", "r:utf-8")              {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 13, 10] # expected
File.open("a.txt", "r", encoding: "utf-8") {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 13, 10] # expected
File.open("a.txt", encoding: "utf-8")      {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10, 10] # XXX: universal newline enabled?
```
The omission of the mode parameter seems to enable universal newline.

```ruby
File.open("a.txt", "rt:utf-8")                  {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10, 10] # expected(universal newline)
File.open("a.txt", "rt:bom|utf-8")              {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10] # XXX
File.open("a.txt", "rt", encoding: "utf-8")     {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10, 10] # expected(universal newline)
File.open("a.txt", "rt", encoding: "bom|utf-8") {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10] # XXX
```
XXX: This is odd because universal newline and msvcrt newline appear to be cooperating.

----------------------------------------
I'm not sure whether this is an intentional behavior or not but it seems that `encoding: "utf-8"` doesn't change newline conversion but `encoding: "bom|utf-8"` changes newline conversion:

```ruby
File.write("a.txt", "a\r\n")
File.read("a.txt").bytes # => [97, 13, 10]
File.open("a.txt", encoding: "utf-8") {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10, 10]
File.open("a.txt", encoding: "bom|utf-8") {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 10] XXX: \r\n -> \n
File.open("a.txt", encoding: "bom|utf-8", universal_newline: false) {|f| f.read.bytes} # => [97, 13, 10]
```

Note that the `XXX: ` line in the above codes. Is this an intentional behavior?
