I looked at skip-chars-forward before opening this bug but found it
complicate things by introducing new rules.
In strip-string the idea is to have a default covering 90% of the use
cases:
(strip-string s) ; strip both
(strip-string s nil "") ; strip leading
(strip-string s "") ; strip trailing
Refer users to regexp as in (info "(elisp)Regexp Special") for the
remaining 10% use cases.
