split: fix cases where -n l/... creates extraneous files
* src/split.c (lines_chunk_split): Ensure that data is only
written to stdout when k specified. Also ensure that
extra files are not created when there is more data available
than reported in the file size.
* tests/misc/split-lchunk: Verify that split -n l/k/n doesn't
generate any files, and that -n l/n always generates n files.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
