When git-interpret-trailers is used to add a trailer to a message that
does not end in a trailing newline, the new trailer is added on the line
immediately following the message instead of as a trailer block
separated from the message by a newline character.
For example, if a message's text was "The subject" with no trailing
newline at all, `git interpret-trailers --trailer my-trailer=true` will
result in the following malformed commit message:
The subject
my-trailer: true
While it is generally expected that a commit message should end with a
newline character, git-interpret-trailers should not be returning an
invalid message in this case.
Detect when a message exists but does not end with a newline character,
and add an extra newline before appending the new trailer.
