[issue17343] Add a version of str.split which returns an iterator

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon added the comment:

There is no string view that I know of. Interesting idea, though, thanks to the immutability of strings. Would much have to be different other than boundary checking and __hash__ (and hoping extension authors are changing things in-place)?

I say go ahead and open the issue for the idea.
