[lang] Whitespace method.

[Tyler MacLeod <ma...@gmail.com>]

Java 5 introduces a new Space predicate to the Character class called
isSpaceChar (http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html#isSpaceChar(int)).
It was introduced to correct some false negatives with isWhitespace
such as with a non-breaking space.

I would recommend replacing the isWhitespace usage in both StringUtils
and WordUtils.
