add CollapseWhitespace for flattening runs of whitespace

CollapseWhitespace turns every run of whitespace into a single space and
trims the ends, so a block of text becomes one tidy line. Comes with a doc
comment and table-driven tests. (closes #7)

// and removes any whitespace at the start and end. Tabs, newlines and spaces
// outside ASCII such as the non-breaking space all count as whitespace, so a
// block of text comes back as one line with single spaces between the words.
// A string that is nothing but whitespace comes back empty.
