bug#8725: imenu--split-menu should not deliver surprises

Hi. This bug still exists in 24.4.50. An example:

    emacs -Q
    M-x org-mode
    ;;; type the following text
    * section 1
    * section 2
    ** 2.1
    ** 2.2
    * section 3
    * section 4
    ** 4.1
    ** 4.2
    ;;; end
    M-x imenu-add-menubar-index

Then Imenu produces a confusing menu like this:

    section 2
    |—2.1
    |—2.2
    section 4
    |—4.1
    |—4.2
    section 1
    section 3

and the reason is Imenu put items with submenus at the top. Such
behaviour may be reasonable for programming modes, but is clearly
unnecessary for text modes.

How about making a discrimination in imenu--split-menu?
