Hello, folks. As discussed in previous messages [1], I am proposing
the creation of an alias function `split` to the `explode` function.
Here is the RFC for discussion:

-1. My 2c is that aliases should be deprecated and eventually removed,
not more added. Modern PHP projects tend to have coding standards that
prohibit the use of aliases. See `no_alias_functions` PHP CS Fixer rule
for example. The existence of aliases only creates unnecessary noise
across the ecosystem, eg CI failing when someone does end up using the
alias. If you think that a function should be named this or that, you
can always create aliases in userland code.
