Some editors automatically remove trailing blank lines, or
automatically add a trailing newline to avoid having a trailing
non-blank line that is not terminated by a newline. To avoid unrelated
whitespace changes when users of such editors contribute to GLib,
let's pre-emptively normalize all files.
Unlike more intrusive whitespace normalization like removing trailing
whitespace from each line, this seems unlikely to cause significant
issues with cherry-picking changes to stable branches.

We need a stable sort, and we might as well always use it rather
than have multiple sort versions. This picks up the glibc
merge sort implementation which it uses by default for qsort,
except we don't fall back to non-stable quicksort in some cases
like glibc
