* lib/shellwords.rb: Add shellescape() and shelljoin().

* lib/shellwords.rb: Rename shellwords() to shellsplit() and make
  the former an alias to the latter.

* lib/shellwords.rb: Add escape(), split(), join() as class
  methods, which are aliases to their respective long names
  prefixed with `shell'.

* lib/shellwords.rb: Add String#shellescape(), String#shellsplit()
  and Array#shelljoin() for convenience.
