fix: Preserve multiple newlines with whitespace in text-based messaging channels (#13044)
## Description

Fixes an issue where multiple newlines with whitespace between them
(e.g., `\n \n \n`) were being collapsed to single newlines in text-based
messaging channels (Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, Line, SMS).

The frontend was sending messages with spaces/tabs between newlines, and
the markdown renderer was treating these as paragraph content,
collapsing them during rendering.

### Changes:
1. Added whitespace normalization in `render_telegram_html`,
`render_whatsapp`, `render_instagram`, `render_line`, and
`render_plain_text` methods
2. Strips whitespace from whitespace-only lines before markdown
processing
3. Added comprehensive regression tests for all affected channels

## Type of change

- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)

## How Has This Been Tested?

1. **Unit Tests**: Added 7 new specs testing multiple newlines with
whitespace between them for all text-based channels
2. **Manual Testing**: Verified with actual frontend payload containing
`\n \n \n` patterns
3. **Regression Testing**: All existing 63 specs pass

### Test Results:
-  All 63 markdown renderer specs pass (56 original + 7 new)
-  All 12 Telegram channel specs pass
-  All 27 WhatsApp + Instagram specs pass
-  Verified with real-world payload: 18 newlines preserved (previously
collapsed to 1)

### Test Command:
```bash
RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rspec spec/services/messages/markdown_renderer_service_spec.rb
RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rspec spec/models/channel/telegram_spec.rb
```
