#374: options with line breaks are truncated on blog edit form

 On blog editing pages like
 http://www..../wp-admin/wpmu-blogs.php?action=editblog&id=13
 most of the options from wp_13_options are listed on the left side (and
 editable - except the serialized ones).
 Option values that have line breaks are truncated as they are loaded in
 text fields. Submitting this form for a reason will cause the loss of
 these values.

 e.g. I used to have several ping sites under the 'ping_sites' option
 separated by line breaks (I've imported the blog to MU from regular WP).
 Submitting the form left me with  the first entry only.

 Possible ways to fix this:
 - search for line breaks in the option_value and use 'textarea' instead of
 'text' fields when the option value has line breaks.
 - use textarea instead of text fields for all values

 This is happening in WPMU 1.2.1 - 1.2.3
