@tecpromotion no more hard-coded strings

Does it make sense to check for invalid characters here as well, or do we need a new PR for that?
I just entered four letters and the rest as spaces. The bar turns green and at the very end, an error message appears saying that the password must not contain any spaces, and nothing works anymore.
Screenshot in german but you see the problem.

the only chars that is been checked on installation should be spaces, check added
It works in principle, but the string JFIELD_PASSWORD_SPACES_IN_PASSWORD is not entirely correct, as spaces within the password are not accepted either. However, it only refers to the beginning and end.
then the text of JFIELD_PASSWORD_SPACES_IN_PASSWORD="Password must not have spaces at the beginning or end." is wrong
as it is only used here
joomla-cms/libraries/src/Form/Rule/PasswordRule.php
Lines 95 to 115 in 1b14ada
it should be JFIELD_PASSWORD_SPACES_IN_PASSWORD="Password must not have spaces."
@alikon Please do not use hard-coded strings. This should be a variable so that appropriate translations can be made in all languages.
