replace trim_whitespace implementation

originally proposed in a comment at Rust-for-Linux#911 (comment)

- using while let allows us to combine all tests and
  the reminder construction  into one pattern
- without slice indexing and as such  the use of the `Index` trait
  we can now also make the function `const`
- a quick comparison on [Compiler Explorer](https://godbolt.org/z/Ex5dT8ffr)
  shows no changes in the resulting instructions,
  at least for the checked constellation
