email.Header.decode_header() doesn't work if encoded-word was separeted
by CRLF. 

For exmaple, decode_header('=?iso-8859-1?q?hello?=\r\n world.') returns
[('=?iso-8859-1?q?hello?=\r\n world.', None)], not [('hello',
'iso-8859-1'), (' world.', None)].

This bug was caused by rev.54371, bug #1582282. I attached a patch to
fix problem and test-case.

See patch in issue1079.  I don't think email.header can require
whitespace until it decodes parsed headers, as whitespace is not always
required.
