docs: Utility method to parse name=value pairs (GETINFO etc). Takes a
      string with newline-separated lines and expects at most one = sign
      per line. Accumulates multi-line values.
  
      :param multiline_values:
          The default is True which allows for multi-line values until a
          line with the next = sign on it. So: '''Foo=bar\nBar'''
          produces one key, 'Foo', with value 'bar\nBar' -- set to
          False, there would be two keys: 'Foo' with value 'bar' and
          'Bar' with value DEFAULT_VALUE.
