Sorry for dropping this for so long! Stuff got busy at work and I've been
happily using my fork with this change for some time. I would really like this
to get in, and promise to be responsive to feedback.

First of all, I should admit I don't fully understand the full set of things
that modifies `BreakBeforeParameter`, it seems to be set from a lot of places.
Because I don't have this understanding, I'm trying to be very conservative.
That is, I want to modify it only when I know it doesn't match the user
preferences.
Doing as you suggest does break the tests, because someone else is setting
`BreakBeforeParameter` to `true` with `Style.BreakConstructorInitializers =
FormatStyle::BCIS_AfterColon` when we've done line breaking on the _parameter_
list of the constructor.
I haven't traced down exactly where this happens, since there are so many
potential suspects
However, to maintain what the user probably wants here, we need
`BreakBeforeParameter` to be *set* to false to actually put all the constructor
initializers on the same line. Simply not setting it to true isn't good enough.

How does this look? Your suggestions indeed added new coverage so I think
that's helpful.
