Function stripUTF8BOM

hclsyntax/token.go:332–337

stripUTF8BOM checks whether the given buffer begins with a UTF-8 byte order mark (0xEF 0xBB 0xBF) and, if so, returns a truncated slice with the same backing array but with the BOM skipped. If there is no BOM present, the given slice is returned verbatim.

func stripUTF8BOM(src []byte) []byte {
	if bytes.HasPrefix(src, utf8BOM) {
