/*=export_func ao_string_tokenize
 *
 * what: tokenize an input string
 *
 * arg:  + char const* + string + string to be tokenized +
 *
 * ret_type:  token_list_t*
 * ret_desc:  pointer to a structure that lists each token
 *
 * doc:
 *
 * This function will convert one input string into a list of strings.
 * The list of strings is derived by separating the input based on
 * white space separation.  However, if the input contains either single
 * or double quote characters, then the text after that character up to
 * a matching quote will become the string in the list.
 *
 *  The returned pointer should be deallocated with @code{free(3C)} when
 *  are done using the data.  The data are placed in a single block of
 *  allocated memory.  Do not deallocate individual token/strings.
 *
 *  The structure pointed to will contain at least these two fields:
 *  @table @samp
 *  @item tkn_ct
 *  The number of tokens found in the input string.
 *  @item tok_list
 *  An array of @code{tkn_ct + 1} pointers to substring tokens, with
 *  the last pointer set to NULL.
 *  @end table
 *
 * There are two types of quoted strings: single quoted (@code{'}) and
 * double quoted (@code{"}).  Singly quoted strings are fairly raw in that
 * escape characters (@code{\\}) are simply another character, except when
 * preceding the following characters:
 * @example
 * @code{\\}  double backslashes reduce to one
 * @code{'}   incorporates the single quote into the string
 * @code{\n}  suppresses both the backslash and newline character
 * @end example
 *
 * Double quote strings are formed according to the rules of string
 * constants in ANSI-C programs.
 *
 * example:
 * @example
 *    #include <stdlib.h>
 *    int ix;
 *    token_list_t* ptl = ao_string_tokenize( some_string )
 *    for (ix = 0; ix < ptl->tkn_ct; ix++)
 *       do_something_with_tkn( ptl->tkn_list[ix] );
 *    free( ptl );
 * @end example
 * Note that everything is freed with the one call to @code{free(3C)}.
 *
 * err:
 *  NULL is returned and @code{errno} will be set to indicate the problem:
 *  @itemize @bullet
 *  @item
 *  @code{EINVAL} - There was an unterminated quoted string.
 *  @item
 *  @code{ENOENT} - The input string was empty.
 *  @item
 *  @code{ENOMEM} - There is not enough memory.
 *  @end itemize
