"""
Read DXF drawing from a text-stream. Open stream in text mode (``mode='rt'``) and the correct encoding has to be
set at the open function, the stream requires at least a :meth:`readline` method. Since DXF version R2007 (AC1021)
file encoding is always ``'utf-8'``. Use the helper function :func:`dxf_stream_info` to detect required encoding.
If argument `legacy_mode` is ``True``, `ezdxf` tries to reorder the coordinates of the LINE entity in files from
CAD applications which wrote the coordinates in the order: x1, x2, y1, y2. Additional fixes may be added later. The
legacy mode has a speed penalty of around 5%.
Args:
stream: input text stream opened with correct encoding, requires only a :meth:`readline` method.
legacy_mode: adds an extra trouble shooting import layer if ``True``
filter_stack: interface to put filters between reading layers
Raises:
DXFStructureError: for invalid DXF structure

Read DXF drawing from a text stream, which only needs a readline() method.
Supported DXF versions:
- pre AC1009 DXF versions will be upgraded to AC1009, requires encoding set by header var $DWGCODEPAGE

- AC1015: AutoCAD 2000, requires encoding set by header var $DWGCODEPAGE
- AC1018: AutoCAD 2004, requires encoding set by header var $DWGCODEPAGE

- AC1032: AutoCAD 2018, requires encoding='utf-8'
To detect the required encoding, use the helper function info=dxf_stream_info(stream)
and reopen the stream with the detected info.encoding.
Args:
stream: input text stream opened with correct encoding, requires only a readline() method.
legacy_mode: True - adds an extra trouble shooting import layer; False - requires DXF file from modern CAD apps
dxfversion: DXF version, None = auto detect, just important for legacy mode.
