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

[Matthew Barnett]

Matthew Barnett <python at mrabarnett.plus.com> added the comment:

We have that already, although it's spelled:

    '   x y z'.split(maxsplit=1) == ['x', 'y z']

because the keepempty option doesn't exist yet.
