Inline Code blocks collapse multiple spaces in a row

Note: this is fixed in the 0.29 of the CommonMark spec. Once that's released and https://github.com/gjtorikian/commonmarker/ is updated, we can pull in the latest version to get this feature.

Summary

Multiple spaces in monospace blocks are collapsed. This kinda defeats the point of a monospace block.

Steps to reproduce

Write backtick, x, space, space, x, backtick, such as x x and observe that it's rendered with a single space instead of two. The same thing with five spaces looks the same: x x

Example Project

Not needed.

What is the current bug behavior?
