Space before username causes registration failure

[dschulzg]

Describe the bug
When a user enters an email address into the new user registration form with a space before the username, it causes the account to be created but the user can't login because the username doesn't match the database.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. As admin generate an "Invite User" link and visit it.
2. Enter a username of the form: spaceemail.address@example.com and the rest of the form the usual way
3. User is registered but can't login

Expected behavior
The username should be stripped of leading (and probably trailing) spaces

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux server
• • Browser Firefox, Edge both have replicated this error
• Version 0.14.1 installed in K8s via Helm

I just re-ran the user creation and this is the record from the database. Note the space in the username value.
