Remove spaces at the end of lines

I know it is somewhat useless, but I don't like them for
two reasons: first they cannot be seen, and I do not like things I
cannot see. Second, git highlights them, and this is disturbing...

31 <para>
32 <application>Transmission</application> is a cross-platform, open source
33 BitTorrent client. This is useful for downloading large files (such as
34 Linux ISOs) and reduces the need for the distributors to provide server
35 bandwidth.
36 </para>
37
38 <note><para>
39 The download speed of the client defaults to 50 KB/s which is quite slow.
40 It can be raised, but even on a fast internet connection, the highest
41 speeds seen were about 500 KB/s. For those that have internet capabilites
42 faster than about 1 MB/s, direct downloads (if available) will be much faster.
