Remove extra newlines at the beginning/end of files

Those are redundant, and yaml parser strips them in fact. By removing
them, loading and saving yaml file without any change indeed produce the
same output. This is useful for prepare_for_translation.py script (which
adds lang and ref tags) - to produce only change that indeed was made.

You want to read your LVM image (e.g., there is a problem where you can't start any VMs except dom0).

1: make the image available for qubesdb. From dom0 terminal:

# Example: /dev/qubes_dom0/vm-debian-9-tmp-root
[user@dom0]$ dev=$(basename $(readlink /dev/YOUR_LVM_VG/YOUR_LVM_IMAGE))
[user@dom0]$ qubesdb-write /qubes-block-devices/$dev/desc "YOUR_LVM_IMAGE"

2: Create a new disposable VM

[user@dom0]$ qvm-run -v --dispvm=YOUR_DVM_TEMPLATE --service qubes.StartApp+xterm &

3: Attach the device to your newly created disp VM

From the GUI, or from the command line:

[user@dom0]$ qvm-block attach NEWLY_CREATED_DISPVM dom0:$dev

4: Mount the partition you want to, and do what you want with it

[user@dispXXXX]$ mount /dev/xvdiX /mnt/

5: Umount and kill the VM

[user@dispXXXX]$ umount /mnt/

6: Remove the image from qubesdb

[user@dom0]$ qubesdb-rm /qubes-block-devices/$dev/
