Fixes #1700
Fixes #1715
The bug was caused by the fact that the template parser decodes HTML entities. For example if the text content of a node is " ", then that is parsed to a
TmplAstText
object with a value of " ". Likewise,	
is parsed to "\t", and so on.So rather than checking if the
TmplAstText.value
property is whitespace, we need to get the corresponding text from the source code and see if that text is whitespace.
