[Development] Coding style: space after comma

I notice that our coding style [0] doesn't actually say out loud that we
expect a space after each comma (and none before). Its sole mention of
comma is that it goes at a line-end, unlike operators at line-start, on
a continued line. Yet the Qt code-base is mostly consistent about this
and I've seen other reviewers ask for it, so I understand it to be part
of our de facto style. I also favour it.

I propose to follow (under "Whitespace") the list item
* Surround binary operators with spaces
with
* Leave a space after each comma
Any objections, or improved wordings ?
(I omit "none before" in light of the still-controversial constructor form,
Derived:Derived(Type arg, Mode um, Form ent)
: Base(arg)
, mem(um)
, ber(ent)
{}
discussed some time ago, IIRC inconclusively.)
