Redundant leading spaces should be deleted before vfs_translate_url() call

[Jindrich Novy]

Hi mc-devel,

try the following from the mc command line (not from the subshell):

1) This case works fine:

cd  /#ftp:ftp.debian.org/
(note there are two spaces between cd and the ftp vfs request)

2) This case fails:

cd  ftp://ftp.debian.org/

Error message:
Cannot chdir to " ftp://ftp.debian.org/" is displayed.

This failure is caused by vfs_translate_url(), because it tries to check
whether the url begins with "ftp://" and substitutes it with "/#ftp:".
The vfs_translate_url() returns simple g_strdup() of its argument since
it begins with " ftp:/" what leads to string comparison mismatch and the
chdir error. Hence the leading spaces should be deleted before
vfs_translate_url() call.

The patch is attached.

cheers,
Jindrich
