Avoid a memmove by advancing value pointer
In packages, our description file contains: key = value is here type entries, and we passed "key " and " value is here" to our strtrim function, causing us to always memmove the value portion to remove the space. Since this is a throwaway buffer, do the advancing on our own before trimming to save the need to shift memory around; "value is here" will now be passed and strtrim will be responsible for trailing whitespace.
