Autodetect Line Endings for Parser Input

Registered by M. Nesvold

Not all wikitext parser input comes from the same source, and each source uses different line endings. HTTP forms submit with CRLF, but Unix text editors use LF. Somewhere (early) in the parsing process, line endings have to be detected and standardized, preferably to LF.

The current parser implementation needs to be revised to recognize a single LF as a line break instead of the CRLF sequence.
