When an include is not surrounded by empty lines, its content is inlined on the same line as the adjacent content. That can lead to broken tags and other display issues. This PR fixes all such includes and introduces a validation step that forbids introducing the same problem again.

== Why is this an issue?

Calling https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.object.tostring[ToString()] on an object should always return a `string`. Thus, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/programming-guide/classes-and-structs/how-to-override-the-tostring-method[overriding the ToString method] should never return `null`, as it breaks the method's implicit contract, and as a result the consumer's expectations.

A better alternative is to use the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.string.empty[String.Empty] built-in field.
