Description
Is your feature request related to a problem?
No, just an idea to make line-based server-push HTTP parsing simpler.
Describe the solution you'd like.
I'd like a delimited equivalent of int esp_http_client_read_response(), where I could specify a delimiter(or just use newline). Upon finding the delimiter or length-limit, the function would return.
This would make implementing HTTP chunked push-based streaming protocols like NDJSON/LDJSON/JSONL, stock-ticker type APIs, CSV, and other line-based formats simpler.
Describe alternatives you've considered.
It isn't a difficult thing to write, but I find myself repeating the implementation. Here are some approaches without changing esp_http_client
Option1: esp_http_client_read(len=1) and appending to line-buffer until a newline is found, then parsing the line, then resetting the buffer-index.
Option2: esp_http_client_read(large fixed buffer), then finding the newline, parsing the line, shifting the buffer over to erase the previous line, repeating.
Additional context.
