Rather than try to support mixing Avian's core classes with those of
an external class library -- which necessitates adding a lot of stub
methods which throw UnsupportedOperationExceptions, among other
comprimises -- we're looking to support such external class libraries
in their unmodified forms. The latter strategy has already proven
successful with OpenJDK's class library. Thus, this commit removes
the stub methods, etc., which not only cleans up the code but avoids
misleading application developers as to what classes and methods
Avian's built-in class library supports.
We were incorrectly returning an empty array when the input was empty,
whereas we ought to return an array containing a single empty string.
When the pattern to match was empty, we went into a loop to create an
infinite list of empty strings, only to crash once we've run out of
memory. This commit addresses both problems.
