Re: [PATCH v2 2/6] string_list: add two new functions for splitting strings

Michael Haggerty [off-list ref] writes:

+`string_list_split`, `string_list_split_in_place`::
+
+	Split a string into substrings on a delimiter character and
+	append the substrings to a `string_list`.  If `maxsplit` is
+	non-negative, then split at most `maxsplit` times.  Return the
+	number of substrings appended to the list.

I recall that we favor

`A`::
`B`::

	Description for A and B

for some reason but do not remember exactly why.
