Trim trailing whitespace from value of spring.server.servlet.context-path

[sattamshobaki]

Hello,
I encountered issue for spring boot application that all resources are not working
it's giving me 404 always
after that i found the issue because there was space in context-path value in the application.properties

So it's better to trim the context patch before applying it

Thanks for the suggestion. There's a tiny (but non-zero) chance that trimming may break someone's application. As such, I don't think we should start trimming the context path in a maintenance release, but could do so in 2.2 with an appropriate entry in the release notes.

Hi, I would like to pick this up and start contributing to spring boot. Please let me know....

Great! Thank you, @mrifni. A pull request that trims the whitespace and adds a test that checks that it has been trimmed would be most welcome. Please let us know if you have any questions.
