bug#12717: 24.2.50; [PATCH] `imenu--split-submenus' incorrectly distinguishes submenus

[Drew Adams]

Imenu allows the use of something it calls "special" menu elements,
which have this form: (INDEX-NAME POSITION FUNCTION ARGUMENTS...)
 
`imenu--split-submenus' needs to distinguish submenus from ordinary menu
elements, including from special menu elements.  Currently this is
bugged.
 
The current code for `imenu--split-submenus' does this:
 
(defun imenu--split-submenus (alist)
  "..."
  (mapcar (lambda (elt)
            (if (and (consp elt) (stringp (car elt)) (listp (cdr elt)))
                (imenu--split-menu (cdr elt) (car elt))
              elt))
   alist))
 
The `if' condition should instead test whether the element is a submenu.
We have a function that does that: `imenu--subalist-p'.  I believe this
is the correct code:
 
(defun imenu--split-submenus (alist)
  "..."
  (mapcar (lambda (elt)
            (if (imenu--subalist-p elt)
                (imenu--split-menu (cdr elt) (car elt))
              elt))
   alist))
