Diff between r68758 and my changes.

When you have a template that just sets some configuration or inserts a div,
for example, it is often nice to leave lots of whitespace in the wiki code for
readability. However, this will often affect the layout of the calling page.

Two new parser functions have been proposed to help deal with this issue
(although there could be many different ways to deal with it).

<!-- Trim the whitespace from before and after 
     the text returned by 'template' -->

{{#trim: {{template}} }}


<!-- Remove *all* the whitespace from within 
     the text returned by 'template' -->

{{#nospaces: {{template}} }}




Attached is a diff that adds these two parser functions to the cleverly named
ParserFunctions extension.
