Allow no spaces for the last dependency in ParseDepends, too
All other entries in a dependency line get substantial leeway about the amount of spaces surrounding the entry itself and its individual parts, but the very last entry was required to have a version constraint be at least 4 chars long (excluding opening bracket and spaces following it), so if the version is short and a single-char relation used a space had to make up for it. This is a bit unfair in comparison to the other entries who do not have such unreasonable demands, so we reduce our demand to 3 chars or longer, which is satisfied by "=1)". If it is a good idea to hate spaces that much remains unanswered by this commit, but in practice most tools (re)writing the files we parse will include spaces, so its only in files (or on the satisfy command line) directly edited by users that we can encounter such a situation, which is a relatively new development given this line came unchanged from the introduction of this method in 1998.
