### Description

If a user in a multi-user chat room has a nickname containing '<br>' then
libpurple ends up having two users with username ' ' in the room, and Finch
crashes in this situation. We do not believe there is a possibility of remote
code execution.

### Mitigation

Correctly parse '<br>' so that it appears literally rather than as ' '.
