expand: Fix trailing newlines processing in backquote expanding
According to POSIX.1-2008 we should remove newlines only at the end of
the substitution. Newlines-only substitions causes dash to remove
newlines before beggining of the substitution. The following code:

    cat <<END
    1
    $(echo "")
    2
    END

prints "1<newline>2" instead of expected "1<newline><newline>2".

This patch fixes trailing newlines processing in backquote expanding.
