Don't ignore trailing spaces during query

[tyalie]

Describe the bug
Currently when doing a search (e.g. interactive or through the cli), trailing spaces will be removed during the query. It would be great to configure this behavior.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. add ls (without trailing space) to history
2. search history with atuin search --search-mode prefix 'ls ' (or atuin search --search-mode fuzzy '^ls ')
3. alternatively one can also use the normal interactive search window
4. see the entry for ls

Expected behavior
I would expect that during exact matches, even trailing white spaces are considered for the matches as this can sometimes be a useful query.

this can sometimes be a useful query

Have you got any examples of this? It's currently intended behaviour to strip trailing whitespace, hence I've converted it to a discussion.

yeah of course ^^

Assume the following situation: I'm in a project with a Makefile. I'm often switching between make and e.g. make menuconfig or something like that. I noticed it first very heavily while developing the better shell integration into ZSH, where I can just push upwards to get the next result. Without atuin I would often do:

1. type make
2. press file up
3. make menuconfig appears in my shell

With atuin this doesn't happen as the space is being removed, so I would type in make m before the first result would appear.

I know that this is a special request due to my muscle memory - which I can change. But with the shell integrations (maybe coming), removing the trailing space before a search would break with the default behavior of the history in bash, zsh and probably others.

aha, I see! sure we can totally sort this out, thanks
