strings: add note for new Go developers to TrimLeft and TrimRight If one quickly looks at the strings package godoc, reading the name TrimLeft, one might think it removes a prefix from the string. The function's godoc does explain its purpose, but it's apparent that it is not clear enough, as there have been numerous raised issues about this confusion: #12771 #14657 #18160 #19371 #20085 #25328 #26119. These questions are also frequent elsewhere on the internet. Add a very short paragraph to the godoc, to hopefully point new Go developers in the right direction faster. Do the same thing for TrimRight and TrimSuffix.
