I wondered whether there might be a problem here with surprising abbrev
expansions -- it's too late for the user to change the abbrev after
having hit RET, after all -- but I see what a bunch of modes work along
similar lines, so I've made RET in erc expand the final abbrev on the
list in Emacs 28.
