Folder creation on server allows trailing whitespaces, breaks upload

• I agree to follow Nextcloud's Code of Conduct.

Steps to reproduce

In the app, folder creation on server allows trailing whitespaces. This breaks following the upload of files to nextcloud server side.

How to reproduce:

1. In some user's server space, press "(+)" -> " New folder" -> Type a folder with a trailing whitespace (e.g "Test ")
2. Folder is created successfully with whitespace
3. Add some files to it
4. See the upload breaking with upload error "Unknown Error"
5. Check server's log, (below)

Expected behaviour

As some keywords have auto-completion with auto whitespace insertion, the folder name should be sanitized in the app before being sent to the server for folder creation.
Following, the upload will go through.

Actual behaviour

The upload breaks after some time in the upload section with error "Unknown Error"

Thanks for reporting it.

I am a bit surprised about this log / filename, as Android does not add any "ocTransfer" or ".part"
/fdb98d809cd16c30d0ad66042794cf9b.ocTransferId922929805.part

Regarding fix:
I am unsure if we should trim trailing whitespace or make sure that server/app can indeed upload to such a folder.

I tested it now with a latest NC35 and it works.

Also chunked upload (big files) work.

May it be that your reverse proxy is doing somehing wrong?
