[O] Footnote sorting bug

[Matt Lundin]

Sorting footnotes when org-footnote-section is nil can have very
destructive consequences. For instance, the following file...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Heading one

A footnote.[fn:one]

[fn:one] A footnote

Another footnote.[fn:two]

[fn:two] Another footnote

A third footnote.[fn:three]

[fn:three] A third

* Heading two

Some text
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

...loses the second heading when sorted....


--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Heading one

A footnote.[fn:one]

Another footnote.[fn:two]

A third footnote.[fn:three]


[fn:one] A footnote


[fn:two] Another footnote* Heading two

Some text


[fn:three] A third
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I traced the problem to an extra forward-line added to
org-footnote-goto-local-insertion-point with commit
145109dc4a6f161e4ad826bea9cc970363649280, but seems to have had some
unintended consequences for org buffers.

The following patch fixes the sorting problem in org buffers. AFAICT, it
has no effect on footnote insertion in message mode buffers with
signatures. (Unfortunately, footnote sorting in message buffers with
signatures is broken both before and after this patch.)
