Description:        Splitting string into char array with string_to_array
does not work
Details: 

Hi, 

I cannot really remember now for sure, but the splitting string into array
using an empty string ('') worked for me on pre-9.0 versions to get array of
string chars. Now I have the following behavior: 

    postgres=# select string_to_array('ab', '' ),
regexp_split_to_array('ab', '' );
     string_to_array │ regexp_split_to_array 
   
─────────────────┼───────�
��───────────────
     {ab}            │ {a,b}
    (1 row)

Why an empty string given as a separator to string_to_array is not splitting
the string at all?
