+- `guess_from_filename(path)` — extract an encoding hint from filename extensions (`.utf8`, `.utf-16`, `.latin1`, `.cp1252`, `.sjis`, etc.). Returns `nil` when no hint is present so callers can fall back to byte-based detection
+- `FILENAME_ENCODING_HINTS` constant exposing the suffix → `Encoding` lookup table
