bug(mat-label): trailing white-space between text and asterisk

[ilyakonrad]

Is this a regression?

• Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version

The previous version in which this bug was not present was

14

Description

It's all in the title.

Might be related to #27722.

Reproduction

Expected Behavior

White-space should be trimmed (e. g. by making mat-label display: inline-block).

Actual Behavior

I see UI being dependent on html formatting.
