I'm not convinced that metadata munging is appropriate.

Also, you are only allowed to move bugs from New -> Confirmed if you
aren't the bug originator. Confirmed means a second person has confirmed
it.

  server metadata accepts leading and trailing whitespaces in key and
  value pairs

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  While doing a set(PUT) and update (POST) operation in server metadata
  it accepts leading and trailing white space in key and value pairs .

  Set Request :

  URI:
  http://10.2.3.169:8774/v2/5a88678e1b9a4c1d9c44ccbaad108bdc/servers
  /069a060b-691f-445e-ae80-f7f6bf4d4b48/metadata

   {
    "metadata": {
      "key1   ":"  value1   ",
      " key2":  " value2  "
  }
  }

  response : Status : 200 (OK)

  {
  "metadata": {
  " key2": " value2 ",
  "key1 ": " value1 "
  }
  }

  Ideally white spaces should not be allowed and should be trimmed
  before set and update request.
