Description
=begin
I'm wondering whether the following feature is acceptable before I work on a patch:
When String.split is given one or more integer arguments, the string is divided at those indices.
str = '1.9ruby30932'
version, language, revision = str.split(3, 7)
Thanks,
Loren

Your proposal seems valid, because current String#split only accept arguments whose first argument has to_str method.
The problem is the use case can be solbed by String#unpack (or lib/scanf.rb) like following.
version, language, revision = str.unpack('a3a4a*')
