    Fix SPLIT PARTITION hint for DEFAULT partition bounds
    
    When ALTER TABLE ... SPLIT PARTITION specifies a DEFAULT partition, the
    explicit partitions do not need to cover the split partition's bound
    exactly.  They may cover only part of it, with the DEFAULT partition
    covering the remaining range.
    
    However, the existing hint said that the combined bounds of the new
    partitions must exactly match the bound of the split partition, which is
    misleading for this case and inconsistent with the code comment.
    
    Fix the hint to state the actual requirement: explicit partition bounds
    must stay within the bounds of the split partition when a DEFAULT
    partition is specified.
