On some odt file, writer changes the page layout when saving and
reopening, after adding some text. This breaks a table row across
a page. To reproduce:

1. Open file0.odt (attached) with "libreoffice file0.odt".
2. Page 2, in the blank cell on the right of
   "Nom de l'organisme complémentaire", add some text, e.g. just
   a period. At this point, the page layout hasn't changed.
3. Save the file with Ctrl-S (this corresponds to the attached
   file1.odt file).
   At this point, the page layout still hasn't changed.
4. Quit LibreOffice.
5. Reopen the saved file with "libreoffice file0.odt".

Result: The first line of the "Nom de l'organisme complémentaire"
table row now appears at the end of page 1 (the end of this row
still appears on page 2).

Note: This is a file that comes from Inria in the docx format. I had
converted it to odt with this same LibreOffice version. The conversion
was apparently fine. The bug occurs only after editing the resulting
odt file, saving it and reopening it, as described above.

I've also reported the bug upstream, as I think that it is an upstream
bug (to be confirmed).
