Trailing spaces in `LocaleNames_*` are only in two files:

- `src/jdk.localedata/share/classes/sun/util/resources/ext/LocaleNames_de.properties`
- `src/jdk.localedata/share/classes/sun/util/resources/ext/LocaleNames_sv.properties`

It is very unlikely these spaces are part of a country or language name. The former file contains a few trailing spaces, the latter — only one.

src/jdk.localedata/share/classes/sun/util/resources/ext/LocaleNames_de.properties line 238:

I'm pretty sure locale names shouldn't contain trailing spaces.
