The prettified JSON string already contains a newline so don't print
another one. This allows to pipe the json output (in conjunction with
the --quiet option) to files without having to truncate them afterwards.

I find naming the variable pretty pretty confusing. virJSONValuePtr is
in machine-friendly format and while it has the potential to be
formatted as pretty, it is not pretty right now.

Resetting it even when --pretty was not specified feels strange.
Also, grouping the if (--pretty) condition with the virJSONValue error
checks makes the flow hard to read.
Do we need the fallback? AFAIK there are only two issues possible when
prettifying the string:
* the system is out of memory
possibly impossible, erroring out or even aborting virsh are
acceptable here
* virDomainQemuMonitorCommand did not return a JSON output
For a domain with JSON monitor, the remote side calls virJSONValueToString,
so this could only reasonably happen with a domain that only has HMP.
If we error out on the --hmp --pretty combination, we can error out
here too and do not need to fall back to raw output.

There is also the option of keeping the \n in vshPrint and calling
virTrimSpaces on the prettyfied output.
