strtrim: don't move empty string
There were many cases where the string coming in was a blank line, e.g. "\n\0", length 1. The trim routine starts by trimming leading spaces, thus trimming everything. We would then proceed to do a memmove of the NULL byte, which is completely worthless as we can just assign it instead. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
