Summary: fix .split() maxsplit doc, update .rsplit() docs
Initial Comment:
Hi,
this documentation patch for the .split() and .rsplit()
methods changes the following:
1) remove a superfluous dot in .split() method doc
2) Only if separator arg is _less than_ zero, the
number of splits is unlimited. If it is zero, the
number of splits is (correctly) zero. The "less than"
has been added.
3) The separator documentation of split() is copied
over to rsplit() documentation where it applies too.
The patch is against CVS from 20040123.

Part 2) of the patch still applies: it should be "less than
zero" instead of just "zero". And the attached
pysplittests.diff add the appropriate test cases with "-1"
as maxsplit.

Before seeing this patch, I fixed up the related bug.
Please check the most recent update to libstdtypes.tex and
make sure it meets your needs. If so, please close out this
patch.

Docs read well and work fine. Tests pass on my linux-based
development PC.
Please apply this patch.

Argl, please replace any mention of "separator" above with
"maxsplit". Sorry for the confusion.

I also added appropriate test cases for split() and rsplit()
with negative separator argument.
