Make `split-window' a non-interactive function.

* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Splitting Windows): Change category of
split-window from a command to a function.

* etc/NEWS: Mention fixing `split-window' to be non-interactive.

* window.el (split-window): Remove interactive form, since as a
command this function is a special case of split-window-below.
Correct doc string.
