Description

## Information

**VIM version**

VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Feb 18 2019 23:51:40)
macOS version

Operating System: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6

## What went wrong

rustftm fixer (enabled on save) overrides my last edit mark `'.`.

## Reproducing the bug

1. I did this.
Edit some lines in rust source code. Save. File formatted. Go to last edit mark `'.`.
2. Then this happened.
Cursor moves to the end of file instead of last edited line.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Vim 8.1 on macOS with ALE fix-on-save enabled and the Rust rustfmt fixer selected. Compare the last edit mark before and after saving a formatted Rust file; done means the mark still points to the last edited line rather than the end of the file.
