space inside hash values

[guyisra]

on this kind of hash

{a:   1, b: 2}

running rubocop 0.39 on it gives

test.rb:1:1: C: Space inside { missing.
{a:   1, b: 2}
^
test.rb:1:14: C: Space inside } missing.
{a:   1, b: 2}
             ^
test.rb:1:15: C: Final newline missing.
{a:   1, b: 2}

but it won't warn about the space between the a symbol and the 1 key

doing it on

{
  a:   1,
  b: 2
}

does warn about it

test.rb:2:3: C: Align the elements of a hash literal if they span more than one line.
  a:   1,
  ^^^^^^

Yes, ExtraSpacing ignores the spacing between keys and values in a hash literal, expecting AlignHash to do that checking. I guess it could be smarter about what AlignHash will not inspect, such as single line hash literals.
