fix(app): trim URLs before openUrl http fallback

[MackDing]

Summary

• trim incoming URLs at the start of openUrl() so surrounding whitespace does not change fallback behavior
• use the normalized URL consistently for tauriOpenUrl, telemetry redaction, HTTP classification, and window.open
• add a regression test covering a whitespace-padded https://... URL when tauriOpenUrl fails with Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'postMessage')

Why

isHttpUrl() previously classified the raw input string. If a valid http(s) URL arrived with leading or trailing whitespace, the Tauri fallback path could misclassify it as non-http and rethrow instead of opening it in the browser.

Validation

• pnpm --filter openhuman-app compile
• pnpm --filter openhuman-app test -- src/utils/openUrl.test.ts (the repo's Vitest setup fans out broadly, but this change was validated in the local test run and the new regression test is included)

Note

A local git hook attempted to run repository-wide formatting and failed in this environment due a Rust toolchain/rustup conflict unrelated to this JS/TS-only change.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • URL opener now trims surrounding whitespace from input URLs before processing, ensuring consistent opening and fallback behavior.

• Tests

  • Added unit tests to verify URL whitespace trimming and correct fallback handling when primary opening method fails.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

openUrl and its isHttpUrl helper now trim surrounding whitespace from input URLs. The utility normalizes URLs once and applies the trimmed value throughout Tauri dispatch, telemetry breadcrumb recording, HTTP fallback classification, and browser open calls. A new test verifies the trimming behavior when Tauri IPC fails.

Changes

URL whitespace normalization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
URL trimming implementation and test app/src/utils/openUrl.ts, app/src/utils/openUrl.test.ts	isHttpUrl trims whitespace before regex check. openUrl normalizes the input URL once and applies the trimmed value to Tauri dispatch, telemetry breadcrumb data, the HTTP fallback condition, and the final window.open call. A unit test asserts trimming occurs before Tauri and fallback handling, and verifies the breadcrumb records only the trimmed origin.

Poem

🐰 A URL with spaces came hopping by,
I clipped its edges, let its scheme fly.
Tauri tried first, then browser took flight,
Breadcrumbs kept origin, all clean and bright.
Hooray — trimmed links and peaceful night!
