Add escaped whitespace to KDL strings #290

Closed Lucretiel closed 1 year ago

Lucretiel commented 1 year ago

Proposed addition of escaped whitespace to KDL strings. The updates to SPEC.md include the specifics, but in general the idea is that, in a string, \ followed by any amount of literal (not escaped) whitespace are discarded. "Hello\n\tWorld" and "Hello\n\ \tWorld" are therefore identical.

Additionally adds a test case.
