Fixes #10716

This trims whitespace around the key in the -var flag.

This is a regression from 0.7.x.

The value is whitespace sensitive unless double-quoted. This is the same
behavior as 0.7.x. I considered rejecting whitespace around the '='
completely but I don't want to introduce BC and the behavior actually
seems quite obvious to me.

Non-regression from 0.7.x but added in here trivially: verify the key is non-empty.

value, err := ParseInput(input)
if err != nil {
return err
}
