mtlb_isspace - Matlab isspace emulation function

### Description

There is no Scilab function equivalent for Matlab `isspace` but its behavior can be reproduced.

The function `mtlb_isspace(A)` is used by `mfile2sci` to replace `isspace(A)` when it was not possible to know what was the input while porting Matlab code to Scilab. This function will determine the correct semantic at run time. If you want to have a more efficient code it is possible to replace `mtlb_isspace` calls:

  - If `A` is a character string matrix `mtlb_isspace(A)` may be replaced by `asciimat(A)==32`
  - If `A` is not a character string matrix `mtlb_isspace(A)` may be replaced by `zeros(A)`

Caution: `mtlb_isspace` has not to be used for hand coded functions.
