collapseWhitespace doesn't fully collapses whitespace between two inputs

minify("<input>    <input>", {collapseWhitespace: true});

Expected: <input><input> Actual: <input> <input>

HTMLMinifier version: 3.5.2 Node.js version: 8.1.4

That’s working as expected - you may view the result in a web browser to see why that single whitespace is preserved.

@scipper Based on alexlamsl’s comment above, I assumed that the collapseWhitespace option is not intended to alter the behavior of the code, so I googled for the rules of HTML rendering, not for the rules of html-minifier. Something like “html whitespace between elements”.
