Class Strip

Strip
Strip leading/trailing whitespace but preserve newlines.
This filter goes through the value line by line, removing leading and
trailing whitespace on each line. It does not strip newlines, so every
input line corresponds to one output line, with its trailing newline intact.
We do not use val.split('
') because that would squeeze out consecutive
blank lines. Instead, we search for each newline individually. This
makes us unable to use the fast C .split method, but it makes the filter
much more widely useful.
This filter is intended to be usable both with the #filter directive and
with the proposed #sed directive (which has not been ratified yet.)
