When "kill-visual-line" command is executed at the end of line it kills
the next line up to the cursor column. To reproduce:

 1. Take a scratch buffer. Turn on visual-line-mode:

        C-u M-x visual-line-mode RET

 2. Put the following lines to the buffer (at the column 0):

        foobar
        123456789

 3. Move the cursor at the end of "foobar" line.

 4. Execute kill-visual-line (C-k). The buffer looks like this:

        foobar789


I think the expected result would be

        foobar123456789

with the point between "r" and "1". This is how "kill-line" works, that
is, only kill the newline.
