Avoid Trailing Whitespaces

[christianbraeunlich]

I'd like to avoid trailing whitespaces.

Inspired by:

• https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#other-recommendations
• https://www.flake8rules.com/rules/W291.html

It's not a rule, but the code cleanup command in the AL Code Outline/AZ AL Dev Tools has an option to trim trailing spaces: 🙂https://github.com/anzwdev/al-code-outline#code-transformation-commands

Thanks for your reply. Yes indeed alOutline.codeCleanupActions works perfectly fine. However I still like the idea of having a pipeline step to make sure at a centralized point that this rule has been checked. This way we can be sure that no trailing whitespaces have been inserted accidentally. You can already tell that I'm a bit too Pythonic biased here...so I would like to discuss whether this could be a good rule or if there might be other/better tools for this.
