REVISION SUMMARY
As reported in bug 310674, the Desktop Entry spec says that whitespace surrounding the `=` sign that separates the key and value in .desktop files should be ignored when interpreting the key and value portions.
That is, all four of these lines should be equivalent:
Type=Application
Type =Application
Type= Application
Type = Application
KConfigIni already handles this for the key (by calling `.trim` on the value that is assigned to `aKey`), but neglects to do so for the value. This patch fixes this so that reading .desktop files through KConfigIni should be standards-compliant.
TEST PLAN
The patch includes a modification to the existing autotests which fail with the old code, and pass with the updated code. A separate test is not added, but instead I added spaces to parts of the existing test .desktop files, as this is enough to exercise the new code.
