Description
I recently fixed an issue on pt_BR where linking on <function> was failing because whitespace inside the tag. So I suggest trim() and strtolower() the tag's content before calculating link targets.

Research direction
Start by locating the code that parses function/methodnames tags and calculates their link targets, then inspect any existing tests for this behavior. Reproduce a tag containing whitespace and mixed case, and consider the issue's proposed normalization. Done means such tags resolve the same link as trimmed, lowercase content, with tests covering the cases.
