[PATCH 00/12] drop unneeded newline

Drop newline at the end of a message string when the printing function adds
a newline.

The complete semantic patch that detects this issue is as shown below
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).  It works in two phases - the first phase
counts how many uses of a function involve a newline and how many don't,
and then the second phase removes newlines in the case of calls where a
newline is used one fourth of the times or less.

This approach is only moderately reliable, and all patches have been
checked to ensure that the newline is not needed.

This also converts some cases of string concatenation to single strings in
modified code, as this improves greppability.
