Trim white space from code import URLs

[Muharem Hrnjadovic]

Both xmms2 import branch URLs [1] contain leading spaces. This probably lead to an "Unsupported protocol for url" error message [2,3]. Can you please remove the space and maybe let the importer trim spaces?

This is not quite a duplicate of bug 44197. Bug 44197 caused this bug.

This bug should be fixed by fixing bug 44197 and then running a once-off query to strip whitespace from existing code import URLs.

Actually this has to do with the way that the forms are assigning the values
into the content classes. It is currently by-passing the form field validators
which is a bad thing.

This will require several days of refactoring the code import guts.
