Split / Partition a collection into smaller collections
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COLLECTIONS-393
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-393
             Project: Commons Collections
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Collection
            Reporter: Chris Shayan


Returns consecutive sublists of a list, each of the same size (the final list 
may be smaller). For example, partitioning a list containing [a, b, c, d, e] 
with a partition size of 3 yields [[a, b, c], [d, e]] -- an outer list 
containing two inner lists of three and two elements, all in the original 
order. 

The outer list is unmodifiable, but reflects the latest state of the source 
list. The inner lists are sublist views of the original list, produced on 
demand using List.subList(int, int), and are subject to all the usual caveats 
about modification as explained in that API. Adapted from
