[jlreq] Browsers apply extraneous spaces when letter-spacing (#265)

r12a has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/jlreq:

== Browsers apply extraneous spaces when letter-spacing ==
<i class="meta">This issue applies to all languages that use letter-spacing.</i>

Currently browsers that apply letter-spacing do so by adding a space after every letter in the text that is tracked.  This results in a superfluous space at the end of the range, which creates an inappropriate gap before the following text.  Letter spacing at the end of a line makes the line look misaligned in justified or right-justified text. It also has implications for text that has other styling, such as an outline or a coloured background, at the same time as being stretched.
