 * is copied into **str_map** verbatim. If it is not a JSON object ( a

 * Parse **str** and set **str_map** with the key/value pairs read from

 *
 * The string will be parsed taking **delims** as field delimiters for
 * key/values.  The value is optional resulting in an empty string when
 * not provided.  For example, using white space as delimiters:
 *
 *     insert your own=political/ideological    statement=here 
 *
 * will be parsed into:
 *
 *     { "insert": "", 
 *       "your": "", 
 *       "own": "political/ideological",
 *       "statement": "here" }

 * Alternative delimiters may be provided.  For instance, specifying

 * into:
 *
 *     { "insert": "",
 *       "your": "",
 *       "own": "political",
 *       "ideological": "",
 *       "statement": "here" }

 * See how adding '/' to the delimiters field will spawn a new key without
 * a set value.
