make splitsep preserve backslashes (RHBZ#851295)

splitsep() would drop escapes from its inputs. For example:

  splitsep ':' 'first:middle:\e\s\c\a\p\e\d' a b c

gave a='first', b='middle', c='escaped'. Even worse:

  splitsep ':' '\e\s\c\a\p\e\d:middle:last' a b c

gave a='escaped', b='escaped', c='escaped:middle:last'.

This fixes the quoting so both calls return the values you'd expect
(e.g. 'first', 'middle', '\e\s\c\a\p\e\d').
