Description
Many java projects have one newline after the copyright statement, however, license-maven-plugin doesn't support this feature.
Simple hack is possible by adding newline to endLine but this doesn't ensure just 'one' newline is added since the plugin just adds in the position, not checking the newline.

Research direction
Start with HeaderDefinition.java, especially the endLine setting referenced in the issue, and review the related license-maven-plugin issue 78 for context. Done means the plugin adds exactly one newline after the copyright statement when that format is used, rather than inserting an unchecked newline.
