Skip excessive blank lines before commit body

This modifies pretty_print_commit() to make the output of git-rev-list and
friends a bit more predictable.

A commit body starting with blank lines might be unheard-of, but still possible
to create using git-commit-tree (so is bound to appear somewhere, sometime).
