Test ConfigParser with whitespace outside the value

EliahKagan · EliahKagan · commit e5a2db58d4d7 · 2025-06-07T19:41:52.000-04:00
In both the: - Unquoted case, where extra whitespace is at the edges of what can be parsed as the value. - Quoted case, where extra whitespace is next to but outside of the quotes. The case where the whitespace is at the edges of the quoted value and *inside* the quotes, and thus part of the value, is already covered in #2036. (That is merely renamed here, to distinguish it.)
