Fix apparent inaccuracy in MANUAL.txt
The section about pandoc's template syntax used to state that spaces and tabs following the closing delimiter around variables and control structures will be ignored. Some quick testing with pandoc version 2.9.2.1 suggests that this is not the case. Spaces and tabs _preceding_ the closing delimiter, however, are indeed ignored. I therefore assume that this is simply a slight inaccuracy in the manual; possibly produced by copying the sentence about the opening delimiter and forgetting to adjust that word.
