Description
If I feed a moderately large (9599 byte) text file into qr, it raises a ValueError exception:
(venv) jeffs@frmwrk16:~/software/python$ qr < /home/jeffs/Downloads/Python-3.10.0/Lib/idlelib/README.txt > idlelib_README.png
Traceback (most recent call last):

I changed 40 to 41 in util.py line 183 and that change got past the check but then another exception was raised:
File "/home/jeffs/software/python/venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/qrcode/main.py", line 230, in best_fit
raise exceptions.DataOverflowError()
qrcode.exceptions.DataOverflowError
At that point, I realized that the problem is non-trivial, so I defer to the maintainers.
Thank you
