An addon that checks a field where you are pasting to remove any `&nbsp;`

Everytime you type a space and then paste, a `&nbsp;` is added to the card. This is a known bug that has been going on forever in anki. Just try googling `&nbsp anki` to read about dozen of threads of people suffering this in several forums. [This](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/anki-inserts-erroneous-non-breaking-spaces-when-pasting-from-clipboard/8327/6) is a related thread explaining the issue
