[PATCH v2 5/5] pretty: add support for separator option in %(trailers)

By default trailer lines are terminated by linebreaks ('\n'). By specifying the new 'separator' option they will instead be separated by user provided string and have separator semantics rather than terminator semantics. The separator string can contain the fundamental formatting codes %n and %xNN allowing it to be things that are otherwise hard to type as %x00, or command and end-parenthesis which would break parsing.

E.g:
 $ git log --pretty='%(trailers:key=Reviewed-by,nokey,separator=%x00)'
