patch 9.1.0651: ex: trailing dot is optional for :g and :insert/:append

Problem: ex: trailing dot is optional for :g and :insert/:append
Solution: don't break out early, when the next command is empty.
(Mohamed Akram)

The terminating period is optional for the last command in a global
command list.
