String splitting

1st Pass
- separate the input string into 'words' whenever it switches from lowercase, uppercase, or digits;
  while ignoring non-alphanumeric chars

  'Foo'         → ['F', 'oo']
  'Foobar2000'  → ['F', 'oobar', '2000']
  'JWTToken'    → ['JWTT', 'oken']
  'WiFi'        → ['W', 'i', 'F', 'i']
  'APIv2Parser' → ['API', 'v', '2', 'P', 'arser']

2nd Pass
- if the previous word (is uppercase) and the current word (length > 1), (is lowercase)
  then take the last char from the previous word and insert it in front of the current word

  'Foo'         → ['F', 'oo']                     → ['Foo']
  'Foobar2000'  → ['F', 'oobar', '2000']          → ['Foobar', '2000']
  'JWTToken'    → ['JWTT', 'oken']                → ['JWT', 'Token']
  'APIv2Parser' → ['API', 'v', '2', 'P', 'arser'] → ['API', 'v', '2', 'Parser']

- if the previous word (length == 1), (is uppercase) and the current word (length == 1), (is lowercase)
  then move the char from the previous word and insert it in front of the current word

  'WiFi'        → ['W', 'i', 'F', 'i']   → ['Wi', 'Fi']

- if the previous word (length == 1), (is either 'v' or 'V') and the current word (is digit)
  then move the char from the previous word and insert it in front of the current word

  'APIv2Parser' → ['API', 'v', '2', 'P', 'arser'] → ['API', 'v', '2', 'Parser'] → ['API', 'v2', 'Parser']

import altercase

print(altercase.split_string("APIv2Parser"))  # ['API', 'v2', 'Parser']
