```
tmux.Window.SplitPane(ctx: context.Context, request: SplitPaneRequest) -> (Pane, error)
```

SplitPane creates a tiled pane in the receiver's exact winlink. Attach makes the new pane active in that session and winlink; it is not a global client-focus guarantee. The returned [Pane] is freshly materialized in the receiver SessionID and WindowID rather than by canonical ID-only refresh. [Pane.Split] is the equivalent operation relative to an existing pane rather than its window.

If tmux reports a [PaneID] before a transport or refresh failure, the partial
result also contains the receiver SessionID and WindowID. Other failures
return zero; creation is not rolled back.
