      Description of problem:

      When multiple consecutive spaces are present in Pod logs, the spaces are collapsed and white-space is not retained when reviewing logs via the OpenShift Web Console. The white-space is retained when reviewing via the 'raw' output and via the `oc logs` command but the white-space is collapsed when reviewing via the `logs` panel in the OpenShift Web Console. 
      
      This mangles the output of tables in the logs.
      
      

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      4.13
      
      

      How reproducible:

      Everytime
      

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Create a Pod which outputs a table in the logs
      2. Review the output table in the Pod logs via the OpenShift Web Console
      
      

      Actual results:

      The spaces in the table are collapsed
      
      

      Expected results:

      The table formatting should be maintained
      
      

      Additional info:

      - During testing, I have added the `white-space:pre` styling for the log lines and this has resolved the white space issues. The styling of the logs do not appear to styled to retain the white-space formatting
      - Tested on OCP 4.10.53 and 4.13.4 and both have the issue
