Avoid double newline when running insertchanges

[Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo]

[Impact]
When preparing derivative kernels and inserting master kernel changes, if the derivative has not changes on its own, we end up with two empty lines, which is caught up by verify-release-ready.

[Test case]
Run cranky-close with derivative changes and no derivative changes.

[Regression Potential]
We could break changelogs, or the kernel preparation altogether.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-failed-xenial'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
