+ * Strip trailing IFS from the last variable in read builtin.

+ * 1. Strip trailing IFS whitespace characters (but NOT if they're escaped by backslash)
+ * 2. If there's a single trailing IFS non-whitespace character, strip it ONLY IF
+ *    there are no other non-ws IFS chars in the content (excluding the trailing one)
+ *
+ * Examples with IFS="x ":
+ * - "ax  " -> "a" (trailing spaces stripped, then trailing single x stripped because no other x)
+ * - "ax" -> "a" (trailing single x stripped because no other x in remaining content)
+ * - "axx" -> "axx" (two trailing x's, so don't strip - there's another x)
+ * - "ax  x" -> "ax  x" (trailing x NOT stripped because there's an x earlier)
+ * - "bx" -> "b" (trailing x stripped, no other x)
+ * - "a\ " -> "a " (backslash-escaped space is NOT stripped)
+ *
+ * @param value - String to strip (raw, before backslash processing)
+ * @param ifs - IFS characters
+ * @param raw - If true, backslash escaping is disabled
