Proposal: Add variants of tails & inits not returning empty lists

Hi all,
I just opened a Trac ticket (#1979), to suggest the addition of the
inits1 and tails1 functions, which don't return empty lists unlike
their counterpart. They're defined as such :
inits1 = tail . inits
tails1 = init . tails
I've needed them a few times so I thought they would make a nice
addition to the base package. And, I've got to say, the symmetry
in this code is is nice :-).

Cheers,
Maxime
