[bug] Inline code block starting with space is trimmed

[jhpratt]

In some documentation that I recently wrote, I had an inline code block that has a leading space.

` 5`

This is rendered as <code>5</code> — notice the lack of a leading space.

Given that the documentation in question is literally to show how a leading space is added, and given that code blocks otherwise display content as-is, this seems like a bug to me.

Reference for full source code in case this behavior isn't consistent: https://github.com/time-rs/time/blob/7dc4cf32c48d4e5113661423b4869b5015decb64/src/lib.rs#L80-L84

Thanks for opening this issue @jhpratt! I moved this issue from rust-lang/docs.rs to rust-lang/rust as this is a rustdoc bug (docs.rs just calls rustdoc to build the documentation).

[jhpratt]

Thanks! Wasn't sure if rustdoc had its own repo.

Fix is in #65613.

Thanks @Mark-Simulacrum!

As discussed in #65613, better keep it as is and let users decide what they want on their own.
