Fix font-lock of last character before EOB under 'whitespace-mode'

* lisp/whitespace.el (whitespace-color-on): Don't use OVERRIDE in
font-lock-keywords; instead, use 'prepend' in the call to
'font-lock-add-keywords'.  (Bug#73332)

(cherry picked from commit 35e356f958af69baad8a1a824c59993915fb6abe)
