I mainly want _not_ to create new trailing spaces. While I'm pretty
careful with lines of code, there is no way in the current geany to
avoid the empty lines having spaces due to the automatic indentation.
Hence the patch to strip the trailing spaces on the current line when
hitting <Enter> (both emacs and vi do this but I try to use geany more
and more).
