added the `trailer` bullet point with three paragraphs.[1] Later,
3dc95e09 (shortlog: support arbitrary commit format `--group`s,
2022-10-24) put the single-paragraph bullet point about `format` right
after the first paragraph about `trailer`. That meant that the second
and third paragraphs for `trailer` got moved to `format`.

Move the two paragraphs back to `trailer`. We now also need one blank
line before the final bullet point so that it does not get joined with
the second bullet point.
Yeah, the change in 3dc95e09 was obviously wrong. The results look good
here, via both doc-diff output and just eyeballing the generated .html
file. Thanks for catching this.
