Make sure that includes are always surrounded by empty lines (#2270)
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?
The point of declaring an optional variable is to make explicit the fact that it might contain no valid value, i.e. ``++nil++``. Force-unwrapping an optional will lead to a runtime error if the optional does contain ``++nil++``. Even if the value is tested first, it's still considered a bad practice to use force-unwrapping. Instead, optional binding or optional chaining should be used.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,swift]
----
var greeting: String?
// ...
println( \(greeting!)) // Noncompliant; could cause a runtime error
if greeting != nil {
println( \(greeting!)) // Noncompliant; better but still not great
}
----
=== Compliant solution
[source,swift]
----
var greeting: String?
// ...
if let howdy = greeting {
println(howdy)
}
