kbuild: make $(checker-shell ) strip spaces around the result
It looks like GNU make version 3.80 (but apparently not 3.81) adds leading whitespace to the result of the checker-shell execution. This strips them off explicitly. Also, don't bother symlinking the output file to /dev/null. It's likely as expensive as just writing the temp-file, and we need to remove it anyway afterwards.
