PATCH: prompt_clint and battery level with no battery

PATCH: prompt_clint and battery level with no battery

[Clint Adams]

On a system with /proc/apm that is not a laptop and thus has
no battery, my prompt has an unfortunate -1% in it.

I also think that the prompt system should behave more
harmoniously with user-defined precmd()s.

Cleaning up the prompt system is on the bug list on sourceforge, but I
guess Adam never got there.

You might look at the way prompt_bart_setup uses string-replacement on
$functions[precmd] to insert and delete its own precmd fragment.

Aside: I still don't understand why $prompt_newline is ever necessary.
