use-hard-newlines

When visiting a file that Emacs earlier saved in text/enriched format,
Enriched mode is turned on, but hard newlines do not work.  The
reason is that visiting the file sets the major mode _after_
enriched-mode is called and has set the non-permanent local variable
`use-hard-newlines' to t.  That is futile, because
`kill-all-local-variables' kills it.

Since the variable `enriched-mode' is a permanent local, would it not
be consistent to make the closely related `use-hard-newlines'
permanent local too?  The trivial patch below does that.  This solves
the problem described above.  I could install the patch if there are
no objections.
