bug#55159: 29.0.50; ruler mode collides with header-line-format

[Jean Louis]

Following does not work as expected:

(progn
  (ruler-mode)
  (setq header-line-format "Instructions"))

And it should -- I am not sure, but I guess that it worked before,
because I have a function that always uses ruler-mode and title.

The header-line should be displayed above the ruler in my opinion. Both
combinations should work regardless if header-line-format comes first or
second.
