Say explicitly that normalization involves stripping off leading and trailing bracket characters, before stripping leading and trailing whitespace. See #479.

According to the JS reference implementation, these are matching link labels, although one is surrounded by spaces:
On a related note: It is not quite clear if the brackets themselves are part of the link label or not.
The words "begin" and "end" sound like the brackets are included.
However, that can't be, because it's not allowed:
If the brackets are part of the link label, the word internal whitespace doesn't quite mean what it's supposed to mean.
My English-fu isn't good enough to suggest an improvement in wording.
