Sample doc for mail merge

On current master, the printout generated by mail merge is incorrect if the
global option to print blank pages is disabled, but the document-specific
option is enabled.

Sample steps to reproduce:

0) delete existing user profile (e.g.'instdir/user' for dev build)
1) start Writer
2) make sure the following options are set like this in "Tools" -> "Options":
  * "Load/Save" -> "General" -> "Load user-specific settings with the document"
is enabled (default)
  * "Load/Save" -> "General" -> "Load printer settings with the document" is
enabled (default)
3) disable option "LibreOfficeDev Writer" -> "Print" -> "Print automatically
inserted pages"
4) open attached document "test_mailmerge.odt" (which has "PrintEmptyPages" set
to "true" in settings.xml)
5) run mail merge wizard and set "2.ods" as data source to use (it has 2
records)
6) save the document (required due to another bug that I'll report separately)
7) select "Print merged documents" from the mailmerge toolbar
8) select to print all pages
9) check printout

Results:

* The printout contains two pages.
  * The first page contains the printout for the first data record (a page with
the word "Hello" on it)
  * The second page is blank

Expected results:

* The printout should contain the following pages since the "PrintEmptyPages"
option in the document's settings.xml is set to 'true' and document and printer
settings should be taken from the document; therefore:
  * page 1 should contain the printout for the first record (i.e. the word
"Hello")
  * page 2 should be blank
  * page 3 should contain the printout for the first record (i.e. the word
"Hello")
