Description:
------------
str_split() returns extra charecter when given string is not mulitple of given length. for example if the given string size is 22 and split length is 5, then the last element of the returned array contains 5 or more than 5 chars, which is wrong. The last element of the return array should only contain 2 chars.

This behavior is only noticed on  PHP6 with UNICODE ON

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$str = 'Testing str_split()';
$split_length = 5;

var_dump( str_split($str, $split_length) );

?>

Expected result:
----------------
array(4) {
  [0]=>
  unicode(5) "Testi"
  [1]=>
  unicode(5) "ng st"
  [2]=>
  unicode(5) "r_spl"
  [3]=>
  unicode(4) "it()"
}

Actual result:
--------------
array(4) {
  [0]=>
  unicode(5) "Testi"
  [1]=>
  unicode(5) "ng st"
  [2]=>
  unicode(5) "r_spl"
  [3]=>
  unicode(8) "it()^@E^@1"
}

I tried fixing the bug, in my opinion a single line should be changed.
Sorry, I don't know if this is the right place to post the patch.
Here it is:
