* lib/shellwords.rb: Add shellescape() and shelljoin().
* lib/shellwords.rb: Rename shellwords() to shellsplit() and make the former an alias to the latter. * lib/shellwords.rb: Add escape(), split(), join() as class methods, which are aliases to their respective long names prefixed with `shell'. * lib/shellwords.rb: Add String#shellescape(), String#shellsplit() and Array#shelljoin() for convenience. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://ci.ruby-lang.org/ruby/trunk@13427 b2dd03c8-39d4-4d8f-98ff-823fe69b080e
