[BUG] spaces stripped from password

[ncanceill]

• I've checked docs and closed issues for possible solutions.
• I can't find my issue in the FAQ.

Describe the bug

Using prompt.Prompt.ask(...) to require a password will call str.strip() on the input. Therefore any leading or trailing spaces will be deleted from the provided password.

>>> from rich.prompt import Prompt
>>> foo = Prompt.ask("Pass?", password=True)
Pass?:  # Enter '123 ' at the prompt
>>> repr(foo)
"'123'"  # Trailing space is missing

See pull request #3932 for more details.

Stripping leading and trailing spaces is common practice. It avoids issues when users accidentally copy whitespace.

I'd consider an parameter to disable stripping, but I think it should default to on.
