Summary: str.split optimization for one character separaters

Initial Comment:
Attached patch tries to optimize str.split by a
speciaiized splitter for one character separacters.
This trick is used for unicode.split too. I just
applied it to str.split. :)

quick perf. test:

- BEFORE -
% ./python Lib/timeit.py
'"/aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd/eee/fff/ggg/hhh/iii".split("/")'
100000 loops, best of 3: 7.84 usec per loop

- AFTER -
% ./python Lib/timeit.py
'"/aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd/eee/fff/ggg/hhh/iii".split("/")'
100000 loops, best of 3: 5.39 usec per loop
