The PKGINFO format cannot handle values that contain newlines.

Many package fields get processed in such a way that getting a newline into a .PKGINFO file is actually not all that easy. One way to do it is with PACKAGER (e.g. `PACKAGER=foo$'\n'bar makepkg`). Ideally there would be a lint_package check for this, but we don't currently have an easy way to loop through all package variables and this is the most reliable way to be sure that we check everything we write.
OK.
