[issue28937] str.split(): allow removing empty strings (when sep is not None)

[Mark Bell]

So I think I agree with you about the difference between .split() and .split(' '). However wouldn't that mean that
    '   x y z'.split(maxsplit=1, keepempty=False) == ['x', 'y z']

since it should do one split.
