Alberto Donizetti 3a27f28e9b strings: document Split{,N,After,AfterN} edge cases
Apparently people get confused by the fact that

  Split("", ",")

returns []{""} instead of []{}.

This is actually just a consequence of the fact that if the separator
sep (2nd argument) is not found the string s (1st argument), then the
Split* functions return a length 1 slice with the string s in it.

Document the general case: if sep is not in s, what you get is a len 1
slice with s in it; unless both s and sep are "", in that case you get
an empty slice of length 0.

Fixes #19726
