Subject: [PATCH] lib/strings: forbid lists in isStorePath

When a list is passed to isStorePath this is most likely a mistake and
it is therefore better to just return false. There is one case where
this theoretically makes sense (if a list contains a single element for
which isStorePath elem), but since that case is also probably seldomly
intentional, it may save someone from debbuging unclear evaluation
errors.
