kdumpctl: Error out in case there are white spaces before an option name

Browse Source 
Resolves: BZ1484945
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1484945

Currently the kdumpctl script doesn't handle
whitespaces (including TABs) which might be there before
an option name in the kdump.conf

This patch addresses this issue, by ensuring that the
kdumpctl errors out in case it finds any stray space(s)
or tab(s) before a option name.
