Description
The issue: extra spacing gets added before elements. This causes things like title attributes in menus to break, content build using a page-builder to stop working etc.
This was done is this commit which broke the export functionality for us - or rather it broke content that gets imported on a site if said content has been exported using WP 5.1.1: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?old_path=%2Ftags%2F5.0.3%2Fsrc%2Fwp-admin%2Fincludes%2Fexport.php&old=45013&new_path=%2Ftags%2F5.1.1%2Fsrc%2Fwp-admin%2Fincludes%2Fexport.php&new=45013&sfp_email=&sfph_mail=#file0
This was probably a coding-standards "fix" so things like this:
<title><?php
were replaced, the opening PHP tag went to the line below and indented. That indentation messes up things.
Reverting the commit fixes the issue, so that is the simplest and fastest way to handle this so I'm not attaching a patch.
