Add an enhanced argvSplitString() function for splitting strings to argv's

- Returns the newly created argv instead of useless "this always returns 0"
- By default make a "real" split, including empty strings
- Flags argument allows controlling behavior, for now only flag is to
  preserve argvSplit() behavior but leaves room for future enhancements
  such as quoted splitting etc
