Thanks for the explanation. This seems to give the desired diff with
charjunk=None passed to multiline string comparison helper. I am not sure how
useful it would be to pass it to sequence and dict comparison that also use
ndiff. I can open a PR if it's okay with the set of strings in the report as a
test case. There are no test case failures in existing unittest folder test
suite so this seems like a safe change to me.
