sw markdown export: handle line breaks
Export the bugdoc as markdown, the line break is lost when opening the
result with a markdown viewer.
<https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/#hard-line-breaks> says the markup
to be used is a normal line break that "is preceded by two or more
spaces", which explains why just writing the newline character as-is
wasn't enough.
Fix the problem in OutEscapedChars() where we can emit the "escaped"
line break as a special case.
The alternative markup would be a backslash at the end of the line,
which is more readable, but seems that's less supported by parsers (e.g.
okular and https://markdowntohtml.com/ doesn't support it).
