Thank you for finding this subtle bug and fixing it.
The space before "x" was intended to give more space to click
on the close button, i.e. for more wider clicking area.
So better to keep the 'close-tab' text property on the space.
This means that your patch is the right way to fix this.
Now it's pushed to the emacs-29 branch as well as separately
to master to avoid merge conflicts.
