bug#17801: 24.3.91; Regression: Texinfo Mode inserts newline after markup

[Eli Zaretskii]

Steps to reproduce:

 emacs -Q
 C-x b foo.texi RET
 M-x texinfo-mode RET

Type this into the buffer:

  If non-nil, this is good.

Now put point before "nil" and type "C-u 1 C-c C-c c".  This produces:

  If non-@code{nil}
  , this is good.

IOW, an unwarranted newline was inserted after the closing brace.

I understand that this is because this and similar commands now use
skeleton.el, which inserts a newline after a skeleton.

This is a regression from Emacs 23, which didn't use skeleton.el, and
thus avoided this problem.

I couldn't find a clear-cut way to fix this.  Setting
skeleton-end-newline to nil doesn't sound right, as it is a global
variable, and not a defcustom; also, some Texinfo commands do benefit
from the newline.

I also couldn't find any way of telling a skeleton not to insert a
newline; did I miss something?

Please fix this annoyance before 24.4 is released.
