Title: eliminate extra blank line in verbatim blocks

I get extra lines in the markdown output when I include bllank lines in my verbatim blocks. Example (using $ for EOL):

```
line one$
line two$
$
line three$
```

becomes

```
line one$
line two$
$
$
line three$
```

I don't see this extra line with other formatters. Caveats:

1. the bug (if it is one) may actually be in Pod::Parser
2. The patch provided uses a private attribute _PREVIOUS and may not be kosher

but at least the test case should be useful if there is a better solution.
