Currently vi assumes that the edit buffer ends in a newline. This may
not be the case. For example:
$ printf test > test
$ vi test
<press 'o'>
We fix this by inserting a newline to the end during initialization.

The first patch didn't apply, sorry about that. I also took this chance
to simplify the logic a bit.
