Description
I've traced back a breaking change to v3.0.9. Here's the minimal repro:
str = "\xFE\xFFColumn1,Column2\n" + "\"value1.1\",value1.2\n"
io = StringIO.new(str)
io.gets *["\n", 8192]
In v3.0.8:
io.gets *["\n", 8192]
#=> "\xFE\xFFColumn1,Column2\n"
In v3.0.9:
ArgumentError:
encoding mismatch: UTF-16BE IO with UTF-8 RS
I suspect there's some kind of action for me, but this error message is a bit opaque (i.e. what is RS?).

Research direction
Start with the minimal StringIO#gets reproduction in the issue and compare its behavior between v3.0.8 and v3.0.9, focusing on the UTF-16BE input and UTF-8 record separator. Determine whether the regression or the opaque encoding-mismatch message is the intended target; done means the reported behavior is resolved or the error explains the required action clearly.
