strbuf_split: add a max parameter
Sometimes when splitting, you only want a limited number of fields, and for the final field to contain "everything else", even if it includes the delimiter. This patch introduces strbuf_split_max, which provides a "max number of fields" parameter; it behaves similarly to perl's "split" with a 3rd field. The existing 2-argument form of strbuf_split is retained for compatibility and ease-of-use. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
