⚡️ Speed up method StringUtils.hasLineBreak by 62%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 62% (0.62x) speedup for StringUtils.hasLineBreak in rewrite-core/src/main/java/org/openrewrite/internal/StringUtils.java

⏱️ Runtime : 5.29 milliseconds → 3.26 milliseconds (best of 129 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization replaces a regex matcher (LINE_BREAK.matcher(s).find()) with a single-pass loop that checks each character against seven Unicode line-break literals (\n, \r, \u000B, \u000C, \u0085, \u2028, \u2029). The regex engine incurs per-call overhead from matcher allocation and state-machine execution, whereas the direct character comparison runs in ~196–213 ns per iteration (profiler shows 400k+ hits at this cost) versus the original's ~2 ms per invocation. This yields a 62% runtime improvement with no correctness trade-off, as the manual scan covers the same Unicode line terminators matched by \R.
