Description

If users for batch sharing are listed in a comma-separated list with varying amounts of white-space after the commas, then the usernames can be repeated in the suggested list to add - even though they are the same user.

Enter: brian,carol, brian, carol and all 4 "users" are suggested.

This PR fixes the problem by removing and white-space after commas in the list of users, before splitting the list into and array.

Note: the fixes only does this when generating the list of unique users. This must not be done generally to the string before this point, because group names can have white-space in them. For example, we still need to be able to share with a group called brian, carol ! And a different group called brian,carol ! So space matters for group names.

How Has This Been Tested?

I manually tried some combinations with 2 users like bbbband cccc and having groups called bbbb,cccc and bbbb, cccc. I can share with the 2 users, or either group (depending on if I type the space or not after the comma)
