A prepared sample: just change the text box wrap to "Parallel"

This is only nominally a regression: this same layout loop may be easily
reproduced in older versions, just if you anchor your fly frame to a header's
paragraph, instead of footer's; you don't even need a large image object
anchored as character - simply using a large font size in the text body is
enough.

The attachment is created from scratch like this:

1. Set font size to 500 pt;
2. Type "A";
3. Add a header;
4. While in header, create a text box with text "TextBox in header" (make sure
you create it over the header area, or else it may be anchored elsewhere), set
its border to solid line for visibility;
5. Move the text box over ~center of the page area.

This is almost ready to create infinite loop in any LO version, including
3.3.0, and even OOo 2.2.0. The remaining step is:

6. Select the text box (use "Select" arrow tool on Drawing toolbar, and "draw"
a selection frame around the text box), and set its Wrap to "Parallel".

It didn't happen with footer-anchored objects because of the explicit
exclusions changed in the "regression" commit, but it really doesn't matter to
properly fix it.

It seems that maybe we should not move lines that are first on page, when the
reason is something in footer/header (and thus would repeat)? How to detect
that constellation?
