cut: do not print extraneous delimiters in some unusual cases
When printing output delimiters, and when a to-EOL range subsumes at least one other range, cut would mistakenly print delimiters for the subsumed range. This bug was probably introduced via commit v5.2.1-639-g847e066. * src/cut.c (set_fields): Ignore any range that is subsumed by a to-EOL range. Also, move two declarations down. * tests/misc/cut.pl: Add tests to exercise this. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Marcel Böhme in http://bugs.gnu.org/12966
