Trimed values

[Korbeil]

Changing value behavior by not trimming explicit values.

⚠️ Since it's changing behavior for spaces in variables, it should be added only in major version to avoid having unexpected issues.

I actually agree that explicit values in quotes should not be trimmed. I also (strongly) agree about the major version bump being required for this.

What about unquoted values? Should those be trimmed?

Quick tests:

○ → export FOO=bar 
○ → echo "$FOO baz"
bar baz

Only one space here, the space I put after "bar" is trimmed.

○ → export FOO= bar
○ → echo "$FOO baz"
 baz

Space after the = means no variable for linux.

I would say: follow most of linux rules. Trim start & end of the string. And for variables with spaces at the start of the variable, trim theses spaces until we have a # (comment) or a variable.
