strim: Sync up with Linux version

Linux changed the behaviour of strim() so that a string with only spaces
reduces places the terminator at the start of the string, rather than
returning a pointer to the end of the string.

Bring in this version, from Linux v6.14

Add a comment about the new behaviour.
