Stopped nolintlint and gofmt from fighting each other

Nolintlint wants the //nolint directives without a leading space
GoFmt wants them with a leading space, ...
   except if nolint has no space afterwards:

// nolint:foo // <-- malformed
//nolint :foo // <-- malformed
//nolint: foo // <-- malformed

//nolint:foo // <-- OK
