This patch fixes a small stylistic nit in the user-defined literal operators in the standard library.

I propose we prefer
operator""suf - with no space
rather than
operator"" suf - with space

It is only strictly necessary to have no space between quotes and suffix identifier when the suffix identifier is a keyword. On the other hand, consistently using no space means never having to say you're sorry. It is also consistent with our style of not having space between operator and, say '+'. I believe that first allowing the space in the first place might have been a mistake in the standard.  The (to be committed tonight) literal operators for complex<float> need to have no space because the suffix is 'if'.  We might as well be consistent.  I think this is better style too.
