/**
 * Turns the specified string into an object (and sub objects) that can be used
 * to namespace classes and other data.
 *
 * Basic usage:
 *
 *     console.log(Foo); // => ReferenceError
 *
 *     namespace('Foo.Bar.Baz');
 *
 *     console.log(Foo); // => {Bar: {Baz: {}}}
 *
 * If segments of the namespace already exist they will remain untouched, this
 * function merely creates non existing segments.
 *
 * @example
 *  namespace('Zen.Editor');
 *
 *  Zen.Editor.Markdown = new Class(...);
 *
 * @since 2011-12-22
 * @param {string} name The namespace to create.
