Wordpress-android: Generated excerpts show gallery captions without spacing between the captions making them hard to read

[ashiagr]

Expected behavior

The generated excerpt for a post with a gallery block as the first content shouldn't display captions at all or there should be spaces between each caption so the excerpt is more readable.

Actual behavior

Excerpt is shown without spaces between each caption.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

• Add a new post using the block editor.
• Add a gallery block as the first content in the post.
• Add captions for each photo in the gallery.
• Go to My Sites > Blog Posts and look at the generated excerpt.

Tested on Pixel3a, Android 10, WPAndroid 13.9-rc-2
