Comment(by iulius):

 (In [8269]) RFC 4643 states that usernames and passwords can contain
 spaces.
 More generally, they are bytes strings (without NUL, CR and LF).

 Now that AUTHINFO SASL is implemented, nnrpd supports that.
 This patch fixes the decoding of the news.notice file:  innreport
 couldn't see usernames with spaces.

 Also see #30 (for AUTHINFO USER/PASS where both usernames
 and passwords could contain spaces).
