Series parser: Ensure whitespace is stripped for long headers | expand

Commit Message

Stephen Finucane Nov. 4, 2018, 2:06 p.m. UTC 
RFC2822 states that long headers can be wrapped using CRLF followed by
WSP [1]. For example:

    Subject: Foo bar,
     baz

Should be parsed as:

    Foo bar,baz

While we were stripping the former, we were not stripping the
latter. This mean that we ended up with the following:

    Foo bar, baz

Resolve this.

Closes: #197
