The org-mode syntax document describes entities as:
> \NAME POST
> \NAME{}
> Where NAME and POST are not separated by a whitespace character.
and POST is defined as:
> Either the end of line or a non-alphabetic character.
So using the test document:
```
\_ Foo
```
(a backslash, underscore, three spaces, and then the word Foo)
I would expect to get only 2 en-spaces but I am getting 3. Looking at
org-entities, an underscore with 2 spaces gets 2 en-spaces, whereas an
underscore with 3 spaces gets 3 en-spaces, but if we match all 3 spaces as NAME
then POST becomes invalid because "F" is neither the end of the line nor a
non-alphabetic character, so we can only match the first two spaces as NAME.
