This was reported by @AxemP who wanted to have leading tabs in a text
line. However, split_str removed those characters by default since it
ignores leading whitespace. To fix that unexpected behavior of
gr.drawString I added a new paramter to split_str which disabled
whitespace removal and enabled that flag for the scripting function.
That should not be a problem for existing scripts since the expected
behavior would be that leading whitespace remains in place and since we
have not received any bug reports about missing white space I'm going to
assume that no one has used the function like this before removed those
characters by default since it ignores leading whitespace. To fix that
