STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Rename a file and put a space at the start or end

OBSERVED RESULT
The filename will be saved as is, with the trailing whitespace

DESIRED RESULT
Users almost certainly don't want to have files with trailing/leading
whitespace, and this was likely a typo. This can cause issues with lots of
(poorly written) shell scripts, and confusion with end users.

I think it would be significantly more user-friendly if the whitespace was
trimmed. Advanced users who *really do* want to create a file with
trailing/leading whitespace can still do so via the terminal.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.15.104-2-MANJARO (64-bit)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8

It appears this is already fixed for *creating* a file, but wasn't implemented
for renaming a file.
