git-svn: Teach dcommit --mergeinfo to handle multiple lines
"svn dcommit --mergeinfo" replaces the svn:mergeinfo property in an
upstream SVN repository with the given text. The svn:mergeinfo
property may contain commits originating on multiple branches,
separated by newlines.
Cause space characters in the mergeinfo to be replaced by newlines,
allowing a user to create history representing multiple branches being
merged into one.
Update the corresponding documentation and add a test for the new
functionality.
