It is pleasing to see that with a surprisingly clean and small
change like this we can exempt the initial space byte from
SP-before-HT check and from Indent-with-non-tab at the same time.
Very nice.
One reason why a surprisingly small special case is required is
perhaps because we are blessed with the original code being clean
[*1*], and the fact that a line[0] that is not ' ' will not trigger
any indentation related whitespace errors without this special case,
I guess.

[Footnote]
*1* ws.c used to be almost all my code long time ago, but most of
the shape of the current whitespace_error checking code comes from
c1795bb08aa which is not mine, and I can say good things about it
without feeling embarrassingly boasty ;-)
