patch 9.2.0270: test: trailing spaces used in tests

Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/211ceea602f30b2c075737a36cccc4eea5967349

patch 9.2.0270: test: trailing spaces used in tests

Problem: test: trailing spaces used in tests
Solution: Rewrite tests to avoid trailing spaces (Paul Ollis).

Some tests currently rely on trailing whitespace at the end of lines,
escaped with '\'. I have demonstrated in another PR, such spaces can be
inadvertently removed and this is difficult to spot.

Note: there are more trailing spaces in a few more test files, see
testdir/test_codestyle.vim. Those are not yet removed.

closes: #19838
