Changing input filtering to require whitespace separation between the initial command (alias, magic, autocall) and rest of line. This fixes some subtle but nasty bugs with lines that start with, e.g. r'a_string'. They had been getting parsed as the magic %r followed by the string literal 'a_string' -- now that's been fixed.
