/**
* Returns a function for creating readable streams from iterators.
*
* @param {Options} [options] - stream options
* @param {boolean} [options.objectMode=false] - specifies whether a stream should operate in object mode
* @param {(string|null)} [options.encoding=null] - specifies how `Buffer` objects should be decoded to `strings`
* @param {NonNegativeNumber} [options.highWaterMark] - specifies the maximum number of bytes to store in an internal buffer before pausing iteration
* @param {string} [options.sep='\n'] - separator used to join streamed data
* @param {Function} [options.serialize] - custom serialization function
* @throws {TypeError} options argument must be an object
* @returns {Function} stream factory
*
* @example
* var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/iter/randu' );
*
* var opts = {
*     'sep': ',',
*     'objectMode': false,
*     'encoding': 'utf8',
*     'highWaterMark': 64
* };
*
* var createStream = factory( opts );
*
* // Create 10 identically configured streams...
* var streams = [];
* var i;
* for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
*     streams.push( createStream( randu() ) );
