Until now the columns of a .rr-files could only be separated by spaces.
This regularly leads to not working redirects, where the generated source-file would contain tabs as part of the file name.

This comes down to how the regex parses the file: Before this change only spaces were not part of source and destination - but other whitespace was ok.

With this change source and destination can not contain any whitespace. Thus tabs are parsed as separators - as one would expect.

Will merge this for now and fix the failing CI afterwards. We should be fine if we only support python stating at 3.9 or something. It should be safe to drop 3.7...
