[FEATURE] splitText hyphens, hyphenate-character and hyphenate-limit-chars support

Current splitText doesn't support hyphenation. Support for CSS hyphens, hyphenate-character and hyphenate-limit-chars would be great for neater typographic control.

I guess that ideally splitText would detect the computed text style on the original text (ie: via getComputedStyle()), or we could manually pass it as a setting like splitText(target, {hyphens: "auto", hyphenate-character: "=", hyphenate-limit-chars: ["10", "auto", "4"],});.

No real alternative available.
