This splits an input string on the given split string (e.g., ), but checks if the string is quoted or escaped.
Given an input string like a "b c" d, with a space character as split, and escapeQuote set to true,
this splits the arguments similar to common shell interpreters (i.e., a, b c, and d).
When escapeQuote is set to false instead, we keep quotation marks in the result (i.e., a, "b c", and d.).
Parameters

The string to split
