Xin Zhao cccc7b2d44 editor: Fix splitting brackets inside line comments (#59260)
# Objective

Closes #59229

When adding a newline, Zed has a bit of intelligence to do more work
than just inserting a `\n`. For comment lines, it simply extends the
comment:
```rust
Before
// This is a comment, ˇThis is another comment


After
// This is a comment, 
// ˇThis is another comment
```
And when the cursor is inside bracket pairs, Zed inserts another newline
to move the closing bracket to a new line:
```rust
Before
fn main() {ˇ}


After
fn main() {
    ˇ
}
```
However, when we have a comment line with the cursor inside a bracket
pair, both mechanisms apply, resulting in an unintended state where the
closing bracket is kicked out of the comment:
```rust
Before
// {ˇ}

After
// {
// ˇ
}
```

We definitely do not need the bracket extension rule when we are adding
a newline inside comments. We want comment lines inside brackets to be
split like this:
```rust
// {
// ˇ}
```

## Solution

- Disable Bracket Extra Newline in Comments: When a line comment
delimiter is detected, we override the default `newline_config` to set
`extra_line_additional_indent` to `None` .
- Avoid Rule Conflicts (Short-circuiting): The three newline
customization helpers (line comment, block comment, and list item) are
mutually exclusive. I refactored their execution from a sequential list
into an `if let Some ... else if let Some` branch. This prevents
subsequent rules from having side effects on `newline_config` when a
match has already occurred.

## Testing

A new test named `test_newline_comments_with_brackets` is introduced in
`crates/editor/src/editor_tests.rs`, All tests in the `editor` crate
were verified using `cargo test -p editor` .

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
