This check was added in 0db373883f and
greps for a private implementation detail of the postgres headers,
removed in 3c4768d0d1
It hasn't worked as intended for 12 years, and can safely be assumed to
not be needed.
This patch adds missing newlines, trims multiple redundant final
newlines into a single one, and trims redundant leading newlines in all
*.phpt sections.
According to POSIX, a line is a sequence of zero or more non-' <newline>'
characters plus a terminating '<newline>' character. [1] Files should
normally have at least one final newline character.
C89 [2] and later standards [3] mention a final newline:
"A source file that is not empty shall end in a new-line character,
which shall not be immediately preceded by a backslash character."
Although it is not mandatory for all files to have a final newline
fixed, a more consistent and homogeneous approach brings less of commit
differences issues and a better development experience in certain text
editors and IDEs.

The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
Particularly on slower VMs, the sporadic fails can still happen.
The timing is kept in an uncritical range, but allows the tests
pass there. Mayby, it'd make sense to introduce a new group for
this kind of tests, so tests requiring exact time measurement
can be avoided on unsuitable environments.
