Content-Length header value with leading whitespaces causes Exception

XMLWordPrintable

      When receiving a (multipart-formdata POST) request with the content-length header value set with a whitespace before the actual length-value RESTEasy throws the below exception and fails to process the request.
      As stated in RFC7230 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7230#section-3.2.3) whitespaces are valid and should thus be correctly processed (trimmed).
