The footnote regex used LINK_LABEL which permits spaces, tabs, and newlines. According to the PHP Markdown Extra spec, footnote identifiers must not contain whitespace. Introduce _FOOTNOTE_LABEL that excludes \s characters while keeping the same escaping rules. Fixes lepture#377

Fixes #377.
The footnote patterns (
REF_FOOTNOTEandINLINE_FOOTNOTE) usedLINK_LABELwhich permits spaces. According to the PHP Markdown Extra spec, footnote identifiers must not contain whitespace.Introduced a
_FOOTNOTE_LABELpattern that adds\sto the exclusion set, preventing[^foot note]from being parsed as a footnote reference while keeping[^footnote]working as expected.
