string-list: report programming error with BUG

Passing a string list that has .strdup_strings bit unset to string_list_split(), or one that has .strdup_strings bit set to string_list_split_in_place(), is a programmer error. Do not use die() to abort the execution. Use BUG() instead. As a developer-facing message, the message string itself should be a lot more concise, but let's keep the original one for now.
