Public bug reported:
A leading SPACE of a folded line is incorrectly added to the current
string and a TAB makes the string end prematurely.
The attached test case prints
1234567890 abcdefghij
while the expected behaviour is
1234567890abcdefghij1234567890
According to paragraph 5.8.1. of RFC 2425 both SPACE and TAB should be ignored:
" A logical line MAY be continued on the next physical line anywhere
between two characters by inserting a CRLF immediately followed by a
single white space character (space, ASCII decimal 32, or horizontal
tab, ASCII decimal 9). At least one character must be present on the
folded line. Any sequence of CRLF followed immediately by a single
white space character is ignored (removed) when processing the
content type."
