patch

This change does not seem correct. Mutating RenderStyle doesn’t make a permanent change to the document. The style can change if something causes it to be invalidated and recomputed. So this might make things look right temporarily but it’s a fragile illusion. I don’t fully understand the goal here, but if the goal is to add non-collapsible spaces that will last then we need to mutate the DOM, affecting the style indirectly, not mutate style.
