Description
### What happens?
When I use sniff_csv implicitly using read_csv with the arguments ", header=True, delim=';', sample_size=10241", it triggers an "unable to detect csv format"-error.
- I can place multiple different lines on line 20241 and they all trigger it. The lines seem fine and not different than any others.
- When I reduce the sample_size to 10240, the import works again.
- When I then remove lines 10236-10240 from the original file and keep the sample_size on 10240, it also works.
This indicates to me that 10240 is an upper limit for the sampling before it goes wrong, but the default is of 20xxx.
I unfortunately can't provide you the sample.
The duckdb-version is "v1.2.0"
### To Reproduce
```
self._db.execute(f"CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE {all_table_name} AS SELECT * FROM read_csv('{self.event.tmp_file_path}', header=True, delim=';', sample_size=10241)")
```
