Title:
  cloud-init writes sources.list without newline at end of file

Status in Init scripts for use on cloud images:
  Confirmed
Status in “cloud-init” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This happens on Utopic. Trusty is fine. Steps to reproduce:

  sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n utopic -- -F -s daily -r utopic
  sudo lxc-start-ephemeral -o trusty -n test -d
  sudo lxc-attach -n test -- login -f root

  Examine /etc/apt/sources.list inside the host. For example, "cat
  /etc/apt/sources.list" shows the subsequent prompt at the end of the
  last line instead of on a fresh line. "vim /etc/apt/sources.list" says
  "noeol".

  Expected: newline at end of file, following Unix convention.
  Actual: no newline at end of file.

  Impact: messes up my local script that does trivial manipulations
  (adds a local repository).

  I've examined the sources.list shipped with the image, and it doesn't
  have this problem and the sources.list I see after startup looks
  radically different (matching the template in /etc/cloud/...). So it
  seems to me that the templating mechanism inside cloud-init is causing
  this.
