[JGIT PATCH 1/2] fixed error in whitespace handling of RefDatabase#readLine

[Mark Struberg <struberg@yahoo.de>]

jgit fails with "cannot checkout; no HEAD advertised by remote"
in guessHEAD on some repositories.

JGIT used to work on my test repo for the maven-scm-providers-git until a few weeks. 
I tracked it down with git bisect and found commit 
72b1f0d334729a49cc52e4762093148be62bea39 to be the bad one.

I glimpsed at the code and it appears that the new code in 
RefDatabase#readLine is not Windows CR+LF aware. 
(This hits me although I use Linux because our SVN at 
apache.org seems to have it stored with CR+LF.)

Fixed by subsequently removing all Character.isWhitespaceChar() from the end of the buffer
