Teach append_signoff to detect whether a blank line exists at the position
that the signed-off-by line will be added, and refrain from adding an
additional one if one already exists.  Or, add an additional line if one
is needed to make sure the new footer is separated from the message body
by a blank line.

I dropped the mention of format-patch in the commit message.  This
implementation is less about making format-patch work and more about
cleaning up a strangely formatted commit message.
