Whitespace in DocString is removed in format #179

It's not the xtext editor that does this because formatting the files is fine. It happens during the Maven invocation.

Looks like it's Xtext. When Maven calls xtext code to load the files, it'll preserve the space up to the docstring element. If those spaces aren't there, the line is treated as null and not loaded. The result is that the UML model won't have the line and then it won't be put back into the file. I need to fix what Ctrl+Shift+F does
