I'd like default separators for the joined() methods.

<https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-1428>

But renaming flatten() to joined() seems complicated.

<https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/master/stdlib/public/core/Join.swift>

And what would happen to the flatMap() methods? Is flatten() a term of art?
