I think this is padding being added to the end of the line by
recv_sideband(). I noticed the trailing whitespace in the diff, but
the test passed with it present, so I had to leave it in.

Yea, I think the server is sending the correct data in the sideband
channel, its just the sideband client padding out the line. I think
this padding is a fudge against progress meters that are being written
and over-written with \r lines in subsequent sideband packets.
