In Firefox 3.6, the HTML 5 strategy for Uploader sends an invalid multipart request, causing uploads to fail in PHP

Description

On line 202 of HTML5UploaderSupport.js, in the generateMultipartContent() method, we hand roll our own multipart request to send via XHR. However, we mistakenly start the the message with a single whitespace character (" "), which is not a valid. This causes an the request to be ignored as malformed by PHP.

The fix is super easy: just remove the space at line 202, and suddenly PHP likes us again.

I committed MIke's patch at r10443 after Michelle reviewed it.

Yep, the patch indeed removes the invalid leading space. Reviewed and ready to commit.

Removed a space in the multi-part request so that the Uploader will upload files properly to PHP-based servers in FF 3.6

I've committed a simple server debugging script written in PHP by Cindy, which is very helpful in debugging Upload issues with the server. It's located in the scratchpad: https://source.fluidproject.org/svn/scratchpad/uploader/simple-server-debug
