split: fix a case where --elide-empty causes invalid chunking
When -n l/N is used and long lines are present that both span partitions and multiple buffers, one would get inconsistent chunk sizes. * src/split.c (main): Add a new undocumented ---io-blksize option to support full testing with varied buffer sizes. (cwrite): Refactor most handling of --elide-empty to here. (bytes_split): Remove handling of --elide-empty. (lines_chunk_split): Likewise. The specific issue here was the first handling of elide_empty_files interfered with the replenishing of the input buffer. * test/misc/split-lchunk: Add -e and the new ---io-blksize combinations to the test.
