Blank space characters are not printed in ship names

On the Colony List popup window, ship names with blanks spaces are displayed with the spaces stripped out on the Starport build progress bar for each colony in the list.

example:
A ship design called "L'il Bugger I" would be displayed as "L'ilBuggerI" on the Starport progress bar.

I think I see where this is coming from. I was looking in a debug.err file, and I saw a section where the log shows ship designs being loaded. For AI races, I see entries like:
Loaded ship type: Escort class 12Drengin Empire
Loaded ship type: Defender class 1Altarian Republic

and for my race, I see these kind of entries:
Loaded ship type: Long Ranger II class LongRangerII
Loaded ship type: L'il Bugger I class L'ilBuggerI

The player race has ship design identifiers that are just the design name with the spaces removed. Maybe that is being put into the UI display by mistake?

Yeah, it's displaying the class name instead of the display name.  Fixing it now.
