Handlebars.js incompatibilities

[vojtechkral]

I've ran into two subtle incompatibilities with the reference implementation

1. I was accidentally using expression in the shape {{ (helper variable) }}. This syntax is rejected by hbs.js, with hbs-rust it's not rejected and somehow the (string) result of that helper variable expression gets interpreted - when the string contains names of helpers, it will try to evaluate them.
   I found out about this by getting a strange error from inside the ne helper when the string returned by helper variable contained the word "ne".

2. Whitespace ellision with raw expressions:
   hbs-rust uses the syntax {{{~ foo ~}}} but hbs.js rejects that and instead uses {{~{ foo }~}} ... It looks weird but that's what they use...

@vojtechkral Thank you for the detailed report.

For the first case, I might keep the behaviour for backward-compatibility. May I know your use case for {{ (helper variable) }}, or is it just an accidental typo?

For the second case, I'm going to seek if we can support both syntax.

@sunng87 thank you!

TBH I don't remember, but I think it was a mistake...

Awesome, thank you!

Thank you. I will create a release soon.
