udevadm hwdb: discard extra leading whitespaces in hwdb

Currently a property in the form of
  FOO=bar
is stored as " FOO=bar", i.e. the property name contains a leading space.
That's quite hard to spot.

This patch discards all extra whitespaces but the first one which is required
by libudev's hwdb_add_property.

[zj: modify the check a bit]
