Fix the cmGeneratorExpression::Split when leading chars are present.

In the case of input like

 foo$<1:bar>

the preGenex should be 'foo'. In that case, the search for a ';'
will not find one, and there is no preceding input to process as a
non-genex list.

Previously, the result of 'splitting' such a string would instead
be a vector containing the same string two times.
