abbr/web_config: support space-delimited abbreviations
Support for space-delimited abbreviations was added to the expansion parser in fbade198; this commit extends that support to the user-facing tools, and documents the space-separated behaviour. Equals-delimited abbreviations are expected to be removed before the next release. Work on #731.
