Subject: [PATCH] Match block IDs according to Obsidian spec

Block IDs at the end of lines need leading whitespace, no trailing
whitespace, and contain only Latin letters, numbers, or hyphens. I also
split the cleaning operation between removing the block ID and removing
everything after and including the first inline field.
