The implementation of -fminimize-whitespace (D104601) revised the logic
when to emit newlines. There was no case to handle when more than
8 lines were skippped in -P (DisableLineMarkers) mode and instead fell
through the case intended for -fminimize-whitespace, i.e. emit nothing.
This patch will emit one newline in this case.
The newline logic is slightly reorganized. The `-P -fminimize-whitespace`
case is handled explicitly and emitting at least one newline is the new
fallback case. The choice between emitting a line marker or up to
7 empty lines is now a choice only with enabled line markers. The up to
8 newlines likely are fewer characters than a line directive, but
in -P mode this had the paradoxic effect that it would print up to
7 empty lines, but none at all if more than 8 lines had to be skipped.
Now with DisableLineMarkers, we don't consider printing empty lines
(just start a new line) which matches gcc's behavior.
The line-directive-output-mincol.c test is replaced with a more
comprehensive test skip-empty-lines.c also testing the more than
8 skipped lines behaviour with all flag combinations.
