When adding analytical record relationships the easy way with the
EasyAnalyticalRecords system preference enabled, any leading whitespace in the
barcode is not trimmed.

To reproduce:
1. Enable the EasyAnalyticalRecord system preference - change to 'Show'.
2. Copy a barcode from any item, for example: 39999000000498
3. For any record with item, select Edit > Link to host record.
4. Enter item barcode:
   - paste the barcode into the input field
   - put spaces before the barcode
   - press 'Select'.
5. Note error message: "ERROR: Unable to get the item number from this
barcode.".

Notes:
- Only leading whitespace causes the error, trailing whitespace does not cause
the error.
- Recent bug 30409 did some work on consolidating barcode checking.
