Bug Description

The linter has complained about stray whitespace at the end of the changelog in a few cases, e.g.:

https://code.launchpad.net/~paelzer/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+git/multipath-tools/+merge/327618

This appears to be due to a difference between git-merge-changelogs (git ubuntu lint) and dpkg-mergechangelogs (git ubuntu merge finish). Make the linter use the same code as the merge tool (this could eventually be consolidated).
