Expected Behavior

if the rule no-empty-first-line-in-method-block is disabled in .editorconfig under kotlin e.g. [{*.kt,*.kts,*.java}] then it should not give error for a blank line at start of a method rule: no-empty-first-line-in-method-block = disabled

documentation link: https://pinterest.github.io/ktlint/latest/rules/standard/#no-leading-empty-lines-in-method-blocks

Observed Behavior

in intellij (v2024.1.1 ) with ktlint plugin v0.22.0 and also tried on terminal with ktlint version 1.2.1 even though the rule is set to disabled in .editorconfig file at the root of the project with root=true in file it show the empty line at start of a method as a problem in intellij and on ktlint format command it removes the empty line

similary behavior on terminal too . if run ktlint it gives error for same line: First line in a method block should not be empty (standard:no-empty-first-line-in-method-block)

Steps to Reproduce

any .kt kotlin file with a method with which has a empty line as first line in method body
