Trailing newline(s) in string fields may cause issues with some parsers when written to conf file. In particular, it causes issues with this open source splunk conf file parser: https://github.com/splunk/addonfactory-splunk-conf-parser-lib
Note that this issue does NOT occur in the Splunk product itself.
This PR removes leading AND trailing whitespace when long string fields are serialized to conf file.
