Introduce a variant of the `string_list_split_in_place()` function that takes a string of accepted delimiters. By contrast to its cousin `string_list_split_in_place()` which splits the given string at every instance of the single character `delim`, the `_multi` variant splits the given string any any character appearing in the string `delim`. Instead of using `strchr(2)` to locate the first occurrence of the given delimiter character, `string_list_split_in_place_multi()` uses `strpbrk(2)` to find the first occurrence of *any* character in the given delimiter string. Since the `_multi` variant is a generalization of the original implementation, reimplement `string_list_split_in_place()` in terms of the more general function by providing a single-character string for the list of accepted delimiters.
