#12932: Transport Key-Value pairs should be space separated

Comment (by yawning):
Yes, the pt-spec has each pluggable transport (server) passing these back
in a comma separated format, and yes, as far as I am aware little-t tor
doesn't convert that to something that's actually directly usable by the
client (which requires them to be space separated).
As much as it sucks to have BridgeDB being the one doing the conversion
here, it's the expedient thing to do (the alternative would be to make the
changes in tor, which would put people who want to run obfs4 bridges in
the position of "well, you need Really Bleeding Edge tor, compile it from
source").
As it stands this blocks obfs4 deployment, so we should come to a
conclusion on the Right Thing to do.
