Restore column when near eof #35

Hi! Thanks for this very useful plugin :+1:

The only thing that bothered me a bit is that it uses quote instead of backtick when we're near the end of the file, which means it jumps to first non-blank character (so not restoring the column position). Seems like it was like that right from it's introduction in 2015 (https://github.com/farmergreg/vim-lastplace/commit/945cc1a062d847d01e10f09c0e8480c371706524), but I'm not sure if it's actually intended to behave like that for some reason.
