Rewrite foldline() in fold(1)

After the audit, I had this noted down as a TODO-item, but
considered the function to be tested enough to hold the line
until I came to rewrite it.
Admittedly, I didn't take a closer look at the previous loop
and there probably were some edge-cases which caused trouble, but
so far so good, the new version of this commit should be safe
and considered audited.

Yes, it is. If an error is produced in a stream, the value of error
associated with the strem is kept until is cleared with a clearerr
call.

If fwrite() fails with a short element count, will ferror() always be
on true?  I am not sure we can rely on this.

And also if fwrite() fails is it guaranteed that it will continue to
fail on all future calls?

Look again, we write 'off' bytes, not 1.

Calling ferror sounds like a nice idea. Let's take a look at it.

It's a bit strange this fwrite, why don't you use putchar there?, and
why you check the return value of fwrite, but not the return value of
putcharor fputs?.  I usually don't check the return value of write
functions and at the end of the loop I do a call to ferror.
