Given a string of text and a maximum line width, break the text into lines such that no line exceeds the maximum width. Words should not be split across lines. If a single word is longer than the maximum width, place it on its own line. Return null for null text input. Return an empty list for empty text.

Examples:

Input: text = 'The quick brown fox jumps over', maxWidth = 10 Output: ['The quick', 'brown fox', 'jumps over'] Explanation: Each line fits within 10 characters without splitting words Input: text = 'Hello', maxWidth = 10 Output: ['Hello'] Explanation: Single word fits on one line Input: text = 'Supercalifragilistic is fun', maxWidth = 10 Output: ['Supercalifragilistic', 'is fun'] Explanation: Long word exceeds limit but goes on its own line Input: text = null, maxWidth = 10 Output: null Explanation: Null input returns null Input: text = '', maxWidth = 10 Output: [] Explanation: Empty text returns an empty list
