Pasting multiple spaces in a row in the address bar or find bar converts them to a single space

Reported by runem...@gmail.com, Jul 26 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.82 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Copy and paste "a     b" into the address bar or find bar
2. Notice how "a b" gets pasted instead 

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
"a     b" gets converted to "a b", making it hard to search for long strings containing multiple spaces inside a page by copy-pasting them.

For example, try searching for "C7  FC  E9  E2  E4  E0  E5  E7  EA  EB  E8  EF  EE  EC  C4  C5  C9  E6  C6  F4  F6  F2  FB  F9  FF  D6  DC  A2  A3  A5" on this page: ftp://ftp.ulg.ac.be/pub/docs/iso8859/iso8859.moretran.txt

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 52.0.2743.82  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.3
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0
