separator

Patch solving the bug by implementing described solution
Parser extension function #arraymap allows for the specification of a user
defined separator. If an empty separator is passed with for example
{{#arraymap:12345||x|[[x]]}} it is directly passed on to explode() which yields
a warning on the resulting HTML page.
While the current implementation doesn't offer a defined result for this case,
I believe a meaning could be attached to it solving this issue.
There is currently no way to apply #arraymap to a list of characters without a
separator, e.g. for separating the digits in the example above. For this use
case #arraymap should break around the "empty" space between the digits. This
motivates my solution of using separator='' to yield a list of single
characters for a given string. The attached patch implements this behavior.
