Leading and trailing spaces in language resource file were removed

Original issue 14 created by mkzhang1979 on 2010-04-16T19:23:39.000Z:

1. Decompile Mms.apk.
2. Open Mms\res\values\strings.xml, you will see some entries with
   trailing space. For example, <string name="forward_prefix">Fwd: </string>
3. Build Mms foler to APK without any change.
4. Decompile the new out.apk.
5. Open out\res\values\strings.xml, check if the trailing spaces are
   preserved.

[Expected]
Spaces are preserved.

[Actual]
Spaces are removed.

I'm using apktool-1.0.0.tar.bz2 and apktool-install-windows-2.1_r01-1.zip
released on April 2. My PC is running Windows 7.

Yes, aapt ignores whitespaces in XML resources, I tried to escape them somehow, but
failed. Thanks to you, now I know, how to do it properly :-)

It's from Android sources.
