Contribution from Philip Boulain <prb@ecs.soton.ac.uk>:

This makes url_normalize take care of whitespace in a fairly useful way,
consistent with other browsers:

 - Leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed
 - Internal whitespace is urlescaped

For example,
 "  http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=hello world  "
becomes
 "http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=hello%20world"

Explicit trailing whitespace, e.g. "...hello world%20", is left alone.

The upshot is that if you sloppily copy-paste a URL from IRC or whatnot
into the address bar, NetSurf no longer silently ignores you if you
caught some adjacent whitespace.
