Description

We already support fallible creation of a Seq from str. There is a dedicated trait for exactly this conversion in the standard library so we should probably just add this trait to Seq.

Research direction

Start by locating Seq's existing fallible creation from str, then read the standard library's std::str::FromStr documentation linked in the issue. The work is complete when Seq implements that trait while preserving its current fallible string-conversion behavior.
