Convert a string into list, given separators.

1	chr_to_list(chr, atom_sep = ";", list_sep = "\|")

`chr`	string to convert.
`atom_sep`	separator for the elements of atomic vectors.
`list_sep`	separator for the elements of lists.

The function is vectorized hence chr can be a character vector with more than one element. Consequently the returned value is always a list (even of length 1). If all elements of the returned list are atomic, the list is simplified.

A list (NULL if the string is empty or NA).

chr_to_list("1;2;3|a;b")
chr_to_list("1;2;3")
chr_to_list("1|2|3")
chr_to_list(c("1;3", "2|4")) # vectorized usage
chr_to_list(c("1;3", "2;4")) # simplification
