Bug report

Bug description:

The issue happensonly when pulling a line from history.

Typing 4 spaces or a Tab and hitting Enter when at the PDB prompt is interpreted the same as hitting Enter without entering whitespace.
However, grabbing a whitespace-only line from history causes a prompt/line continuatin.

To reproduce:

1. Typeif True: and hit Enter
2. Type 4 spaces and hit Enter
3. Type 4 spaces,print("True") and hit Enter twice
4. Hit the up arrow 2 times
5. Hit Enter again

After those 5 steps you will see:

Repeatedly hitting Enter at that point shows the same continuation prompt:

The new REPL had a somewhat similar issue (#118911 was part of it).
