lynx-dev [PATCH] don't trim trailing white spaces in input fields

[Vlad Harchev]

 Hi, 

 Here is a patch that disables trailing white spaces trimming in input fields.
 This patch is merely a pointer of location that should be tweaked - I don't
 have idea what to do with the code - remove it or just #ifdef 0.
 Patch is for 2.8.4dev3

 Best regards,
  -Vlad
