bug#3136: 23.0.92; Customized variables include state string

[Cameron Horsburgh]

When I change a string variable using the customize interface, the
line after the entry point for the string is included in the
string. So, customising the variable 'twitter-username' to 'fred' leads to:

,----
| 
|  '(twitter-username "fred
|    [State]: EDITED, shown value does not take effect until you set or save 
it.")
| 
`----

This behaviour has occurred for variables in several modes I have
tried to customise and is readily reproducible.
