This patch fixes a spurious End_Error raised by Text_IO.Get_Line, when the
input line has 499 or 500 characters and does not contain a line terminator.

No short example available.

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk

2016-04-27  Ed Schonberg  <schonb...@adacore.com>

        * a-textio.adb (Get_Line function): Handle properly the case of
        a line that has the same length as the buffer (or a multiple
        thereof) and there is no line terminator.
        * a-tigeli.adb (Get_Line procedure): Do not store an end_of_file
        in the string when there is no previous line terminator and we
        need at most one additional character.
