Request for Enhancement: C-y in Isearch mode should yank to next EOL.

[Alan Mackenzie]

Hi, Emacs!

In Isearch mode, C-y yanks the text up to the end of the current line.
If point is already at EOL (e.g., you've just done a C-y), C-y does
nothing.  This is not useful.

I propose that C-y should instead yank to the next EOL, so that repeated
`C-y's yank succesive lines.  Here is a patch which does this:

        * isearch.el (isearch-yank-line): C-y yanks to next EOL, not end
        of current line.
