merge: cleanup messages like commit
This change allows git-merge messages to be cleaned up with the commit.cleanup configuration or --cleanup option, just like how git-commit does it. We also give git-pull the option of --cleanup so that it can also take advantage of this change. Finally, add testing to ensure that messages are properly cleaned up. Note that some newlines that were added to the commit message were removed so that if a file were read via -F, it would be copied faithfully.
